My provider is Virgin Mobile. My phone may soon be my only "private" internet connection. I have tried the following to get cyanogen mod 7 (gingerbread) to tether to windows XP: Followed the instructions at Android Devices: Tethering and Portable Wi-Fi Hotspots - Google Mobile Help (my xp says that the download "does not contain any device formatting files" and therefore will not install); Downloaded the LG drivers for Optimus V; followed the advice given for an Optimus S and downloaded the LG drivers using singapore country as the country and a different model; Downloaded "android-wired-tether; tried "Easy tether".
I have it showing up in "phones and modem", on the xp, as being connected to com 5 but the check-box on the Optimus greys out. It comes back to white by itself thanks to the addition of the "Android-wired-tether" but the box has unchecked itself by that point.
I may not know much yet but you gotta admit I have heart.
