Verizon doesn't charge to use USB tether only for wireless hotspot. No PDA NET needed if you have Verizon.

Here you go, from post #11 in this thread.



Yes, it allows you to surf the net on your laptop. "Mobile Hotspot" allows more than one device to be tethered at a time while USB only allows one. You can tether another phone or a tablet with the Mobile Hotspot too. Different features for different people.

Well I tried the instructions posted by bigmook and did exactly what the instructions said. When I go the tethering and mobile hotspot and select the USD tethering it says USB not connected. Is this the a computer issue or phone issue?

Computer I would say. Do you have it set to "charge only" on your phone?

Just signed up to comment here...I use pdanet, and installed it following instructions at junefabrics.com.
After installing I had trouble with constant loss of connection. Long story short, if I set the screen timeout to 'never' before I connect, problem solved. Connection would drop when the screen timed out. I sent a note to the developer, got a 'thanks'.

I followed your instructions and on the USB tethering without PDANet and I still cannot get Internet through my computer. Any suggestions? I plug the phone in with the original USB cable.

Connect usb. Settings<wireless networks<hotspots and tethering<usb tethering. And it should work. It doesn't automatically start

I am doing that and it does not work. On the phone I am going to wireless networks<hotspots and tether and when I put the check box the usb device on the phone turns green but the laptop will not connect and cannot connect to the Internet. Any suggestions.

Thanks

What are you running in your laptop? I have no problem on widnows seven. It might be your computer

Huh I am sorry man I don't know. All I can suggest is open network connections and click refresh. And set up the connection. Other than that I am clueless

PDANet has always been hit or miss with me, and I've since rooted and am using one of the wifi tether hacks, but I'd try this out as well:
