1X driver and Tethered data driver

If you're a 1X data rate plan subscriber or Tethered data rate plan subscriber, you can download and install the driver below to enable your phone to act as a wireless modem between your laptop and the 1X network. After the cellular device is plugged into the laptop, the laptop will access the 1X network.

Run this software to configure your laptop. Then, every time you connect your cellular device to your laptop, run the application and you will have a wireless connection. If the cellular device rings, leave the USB cable connected and answer it. When you hang up, your data connection will carry on.

  1. Click 1xdriver-tethered.zip below.
