I have searched and read and I am still confused. I have the new Cricket Evoke QA4 with unlimited data plan. I assume it has DUN or whatever it is I need, but I cannot figure out how to tether by N810 to it. I have the Bluetooth connection set up between the two, and they can bothe see each other. I am confused as to how to set up the dial-out within the N810. I use my N810 on my wireless all the time at home and want the same when I travel. Thank you for the help.

Also, you may want to see if tethering is also included in your unlimited data plan because for a lot of providers, it is extra and the last thing you want is to get a phone bill for $10k.

Thanks for the help so far.
I asked and Cricket told me tethering was allowed and no extra charge, but that they could not assist in the setup.
I have my phone and N810 connected via bluetooth, but when I go into the connectionsControl Panel, then Connectivity, it does not show my phone connection. When I click connections, it gives me connections setup, but I do not know what to choose. When I tried this last year there was a walktrhough the told me everything to do, but I cannot find it again. I do not know whether to use GPRS or Data call, etc.

That's from a post on HowardForums. If that doesn't work, you'll probably need to Google a bit yourself or try posting on HowardForums. I've never even seen a Cricket phone, much less tethered to one. Cricket doesn't offer service in my area.

Thank you, I had seen that but did not know whether to use datacall or GPSR. I have tried both to no avail. I have also tried setting the for the Proxie to wap.mycricket.com port 8080. Any other ideas or comments are welcomed. I will continue to google and check Howards' but just hoping someone has solved this.
