USB Tethering

[Kloofvreter]

I used to be able to use this to access the Internet when connecting my HTC WildFire to my PC. Now when I do this, on the PC (under network adapters), it says "Identifying..." and after a few seconds it gives the "Network cable unplugged" error. On the phone it says "Unable to turn on" when I try to tick USB Tethering. This has been happening since the phone got upgraded to FroYo. This wouldn't be a carrier problem, would it?

I don't know if the drivers are used for tethering but try installing and reinstalling.

Drivers are loaded. This only happened after the upgrade to FroYo. Resorted to using PDAnet

Have you tried uninstalling and installing the latest HTC Sync?

I believe you don't even need HTC Sync for tethering. Just HTCDriver.exe.
