Several providers hamstring their handsets to prevent tethering unless you sign up for it as an added feature. Verizon has bee doing this for years, I don't have experience with AT&T but it wouldn't surprise me. Verizon calls it Broadband Access, it's an extra $15/month. If you do successfully workaround the block and tether your phone without the feature, you're in violation of your TOS.
