After a long, here’s an Android post on Extreme Trix, folks. Hope, all reading it got an Android powered phone for sure. Android is something that other operating systems can never be and that’s why all like it, it has around 1 Million applications in the Android Market and today using one the Apps of the Android Market only, I am going to tell you, how can you use your 3G connection (and even normal GPRS too) on the Computer too and use its fastness.

How-to –

Go to the Android Market App on your mobile, search for ‘easy tether’. You would see two versions of the App. The first one is EasyTether and second is EasyTether Lite. See, if you want to make your phone a wi-fi modem, then you would have to go for the first app, which is a paid one and if you’re ok with normal USB modem, then Lite version is quite ok and it’s free too.

Once downloaded and installed, run it and you would get the EasyTether Setup Wizard. Choose the Operating System you have and click on the ‘Next’ button.

Once done, it would ask to install drivers on your computer. Head over to this page and choose your Operating system and install them.

Download ET Drivers

Once successfully installed, enable the USB debug mode in your mobile and remove the USB mode from the Mass Storage Settings. Samsung Mobile users would have to download another driver, which could be downloaded from here.

Once installed, connect your Mobile to computer via USB and you would see an icon saying ‘Connection Established’

Connected

Now you may surf. :) If you face any problem, drop it down via comment box. I’d love to help out.
