Tethering is not a 'service', it is something you do with service you already have. Unless you're on their Share Everything plan tethering costs extra. That's just the facts.

dnoyeB Ferrous Phallus join:2000-10-09 Southfield, MI Reviews: ·Comcast	reply to BF69 I don't disagree that they will charge for this. I'm just tyring to point out that they are not doing anything worth being paid for. Kind of like when ISPs used to try and charge by the computer at your house. They woke up and decided to charge for something real.
