Wireless Tethering

[stevewitt]

OK, so I've got wireless tethering with my 2.2, so I have a question. (please don;t flame me I'm still learning) How do I tether a device, like my PC or whatever to it?

you have to set it up as an ad hoc connection

Could someone give me a little more info on how to do this, or possibly a link to "how to's"? My hope is to tether my PC to my DX to access the internet through my PC. Is this possible? And what software or hardware would I need to accomplish it? TIA

Well if it works like the wireless tethering for 2.1 then just hit start tethering and then go to your PC and begin searching for networks. DX should show up with "Android" in the name. Then just connect and it should work.

with the 2.2 update is the teethering free?

It is free with 2.1 too.

Root it
Download wireless for root
Turn it on
The end
