If your wireless carrier enables it, you can create a wifi hotspot under Settings > Personal Hotspot.

I believe he is talking about tethering via USB, which should be a more stable connection than Wifi.

Ah but the Settings app does USB hotspots too

You need this library in order for the connection to work. Then it will show up as a LAN connection.

It may support that, but the tethered hotspot mentioned previously works perfectly well without this library for me on my Mac. When tethered together and hotspot enabled, I can use the iPhone's cellular data with no wifi on the Mac at all.

This library is really targeted toward non Apple systems.

With Linux?

Yes with this library and a companion kernel module it will appear like a standard network interface (connected to the phone acting as a NAT router).
