Actually, you don't need a PH at all with either wi-fi or USB -- those instructions are *very* misleading. Just follow them but leave out that part and it will work fine (with good wi-fi it doesn't need the USB connection but not everyone is sitting right on top of their router as I am here).

So all you need to do is use the personal hotspot with a usb so your using the PH to connect but it's a lot faster because it's actually a wired connection - make sure its wired otherwise it will still be rusty. You may need to download itunes for a wired hotspot connection

Have you watched this video? The only difference is since you are connecting USB, you will need to turn the phone's WiFi off to get a local IP. Then use that IP in the same way as shown in the video and it should connect.

So, I plugged in the USB, I can't really derive anything from the manual, so what do I do?
Thanks for all the help by the way!

So the USB option also uses a personal hotspot? How come?No, it does not. The instructions on how to use USB are extremely misleading. I can walk you through if you have any problems, but just ignore the whole hotspot thing. You do not need to use it either with USB or Wi-fi.

You could choose any of the following methods: shared Wi-Fi, Hotspot, or USB cable.

I actually DO connect using Wi-fi, but not everyone's wi-fi will be good enough (I'm practically sitting on top of my router here). But definitely try USB first. That should solve your problems. (I didn't see any difference using it that way but I didn't have problems with it the other way either).

To connect USB follow this. The mistake I made at the end was not disabling WiFi on the iPhone. Once you do then you will get a local IP.
