Here I am without power, on generator, no Internet and no TV. I've had 3G on the Droid all day, then I remembered that I downloaded pdanet from june fabrics. I used it years ago on my Treo so I decided to try again with the 64 bit version on my windows 7.

With this software you have to follow the instructions explicitly. Disconnect the phone from PC when told etc. It takes about 5 minutes then bingo, my notebook is connected to the 3G Internet using my Droid connected by USB. It supposedly works with bluetooth also.

PdaNet is highly recommended for those in need of a tether.
:p:p
 
I prefer not to root with my phone and pdanet works great for free. I actually bought it for my treo but the only real dif. is ssl support.

Or if you want to tether a computer that runs any OS, root your phone and install the cyanogen mod. This supports tethering by BT, wifi, USB, it supports Windoze, Mac and Linux and best of all it's free
