    I have used it on Win 7 Pro and Home with no issues (both were 64 bit)

    We did this in San Diego over the weekend in the hotel. Brothers Laptop is Win7 Ultimate. Used Wireless Tether (free from the marketplace) setup with Wep 128 bit, then took the laptop and did a search for the Droid, found it and connected right up. Was getting 2 meg down and .5 meg up. Worked all night long.

    Scratch it, you want the other way sorry...

    Edit, just did some testing, its interesting, the wireless wifi on the droid says i'm out of range sitting next to the laptop, yet using a wireless manager from the marketplace it see the connection no problem and tries to connect. Unless the droid for some reason through the regular wifi built in setting see's the network as in range I don't see this working.

    This setup will not work, here is the thread on this forum, see the last posting in the thread

    Connecting to Adhoc networks?
