Using a phone for data with BMW online

How do you configure to use your phone as an access point and use Google via iDrive connected drive in your car with data transfer?

I can sync my phone via BT fine but i get no option to connect to my phones access point.

I started using the hotspot in the phone but that is working quite bad but just turning on internet sharing on the phone and plugin it in with USB works like a charm.

Does bluetooth tethering work?

I don;t want to pay at&t for setting up hotspot, so might go thru jailbreak route.
