What you're looking for is called USB Reverse Tethering.

I am trying to do that on my HTC Desire myself. No luck so far..

Couple of resources reg ppl claiming to have done it on other phones (rooted - will void warranty). None of them worked unfortunately.

a) Requires Rooting - Tried, Can't execute the last command to set the DHCP of usb0 as it requires root.

b) Isn't clear if it requires rooting - Doesn't work (strange!)

c) Some other tablet Android which has an external Ethernet adapter - although might only work with particular model.
USB Enthernet cable Connection

d) Yet to try
