windows 7 and wired tethering

[Duby1186]

The other night we had a big storm here. My cable line outside my bedroom window got struck by lightning and totaly fried it. So no internet till someone comes to replace it.

I'm running SRF 1.2 and came with a wired tethering app. I plug in epic to pc, click tething check box and start up the wired tethering app.

I go to my network manager, or whatever its called and try to setup a new network/connection. It picks up the epic with a f5d7234~4 to represent the phone I assume? As I go through steps it asks for the router PIN#. Assume pc thinks its a router or something? But idk what to do from here or if I even am doing it rght?

I run windows 7 on pc and no way to download anything to pc. Obviously, no net lol any help or suggestions? What am I missing or doing wrong? Thanks

I have never used the included wired tethering but you could download and use the wireless tethering and that should get you rolling. As long as you computer has wif fi that is... ?

My pc doesn't have wirelesss or id gladly try that. Is there another wired tethering app I could try or do they all function the same?

I am also looking for a usb tether solution. I am using the stock epic rom 2.2.2. Like to charge my phone while tethering the 4g speed, any solutions or apps out there? TIA.
