Well, I've searched and experimented until I am blue in the face and cannot find a answer to my problem. I have a feeling that the iPhone, with AT&T data service, will not tether to an Android device. I tried Bluetooth and the eDGe is not compatible -- both the phone and the eDGe found each other and paired but then the phone said that edgejr wasn't an authorized device or something like that.
I tried shutting both devices down for 20 minutes and powering back up. I found on another thread that someone created two Wi-Fi networks on the eDGe, one with a password and one open. I tried his method and that didn't work, either. I tried Wi-Fi with Bluetooth on and Wi-Fi with Bluetooth off. Nothing works. I still get the same result "Not in Range."
I did go to McDonald's this morning to see if the Wi-Fi feature of the eDGe actually worked, and it did. I had no problem surfing the net or setting up my e-mail account.
I am very disappointed and unless I can get this thing to recognize my iPhone's Hotspot, the eDGe is worthless to me. I purchased it so that I wouldn't have to lug out my laptop whenever I wanted to look up something quickly. The iPhone is great, but the small screen is killing my eyes.
