Confirmed does not work with wifi, but why would you need to wouldn't you just run your laptop off the wifi?

Can anyone else cofirm wireless tether doesnt work on windows 7 64bit.?

Which wired tether app are you using, Ki?

downloaded the latest wireless tether in the market and i am running windows 7 64 bit and was able to connect with my fascinate, wireless tether version is 2.0.5 - pre9

I tried pre 9, 11 and 12 which is the latest but did not work at all.
you are the first I heard working on Win 7 64 bit. you are very lucky.
Then, maybe Intel wireless 6200 problem?
Anyway, I am happy with the speed of wired tether program.

I have also used pre 9 and pre 12 with a Win 7 64 bit and Linux system with no issues on both usb and bluetooth.
In any case, you have a program that works for you and that is all that matters.

This is a possibility my laptop has Intel 6250. Can anyone else verify if they are having problems with the 6200?

 

[Ki]

No problem with Win 7 either 32 or 64 bit

It seems that Intel 6200 AGN Chipset does not work with wireless tether for some reason.

Here is a related link on that problem.

The one from the market doesnt work, its an older version.

How do you get that installed?

 

[Sta11i0n]

Download it on your computer, mount your phone, copy to SD card, navigate to it with your phones file explorer of choice, you'll have an option to install it when you select it. Once you've installed it you can remove the file from your SD card if you wish since it installs in your system/app folder. Works for all .apk files on the phone.


This is the newest one:
wireless_tether_2_0_5-pre14.apk

Have not tried pre13 but have done 9/11/12. Barnacle has been more reliable for me.

Both worth trying.

Worked for me on my Win 7/64 laptop. Thanks!

 

[zillahakzor]

Thanks a mill. Works great! Now to cancel my subscription for 3G mobile Hotspot. Thanks again!

 

[poena]

tested this the other day. works great!

 

[Facing the Giants]

I get an "unable to start tethering" please try again. Phone is rooted, not sure what's going on.

Does this count towards your data usage though?

I'm pretty sure it does, just checking.
