Then most likely BlackBerry tethering is not allowed by Airtel/Zain. Many carriers do not include access to their Internet or WAP APNs in their BIS plans. I know for AWCC here in Afghanistan that if you are fortunate enough to get a BlackBerry plan, you still have to subscribe to the 999 Afghanis per month GPRS plan to get access to the Internet. This is fairly common with carriers outside of the first world.
