The phone is Android-based which means that it has WiFI connection and USB tethering features, but in order for these to work, especially the USB tethering you will need the drivers. You can either install them from the support CD that arrived with your package or download them from ZTE Australia. Use that site and download drivers, then connect the phone to your computer using a USB cable and go to Menu > Settings > Wireless & networks > Tethering & portable hotspot > USB tethering and your computer will have Internet access.
