The BlackBerry Bold can be used as a tethered modem on both the Telecom NZ XT network and Vodafone network in NZ.
For step by step instructions on how to install the modem on your PC, follow KB05196 from the BlackBerry Technical Solutions Centre.
Remember to run the BlackBerry Desktop Manager when connecting.
Tethered modem traffic does not route via the RIM network therefore it is not compressed so make sure your data plan is large enough so that you don’t accrue overage.
