ok so im running 2.2.1 custom rom on my samsung epic cause samsung doesn't have 
an official 2.2 so they 2.2 kernel supports ip forwarding. I can connect my 
wife's compac to my epic via wifi tether and i have connected my hp to wifi 
tether from a moto droid2 that i had from a previous contract. This tells me 
that 1 the epic is capable of tether and 2 the laptop is capable of tether. my 
machine is a hp dv7 1130us and has an atheros ar5009 802.11a/g/n wifi 
adapter(says my device manager). I am running windows 7 64bit. I have tried 
windows update to update my diver and it says it is the most current driver. I 
went directly to hp support site and got their most current driver. nothing is 
working. please help cause using easytether is getting old.

fixed it.. i actually had to downgrade my drivers. Thanks HP for the update to 
a pos driver... so anyone using an atheros ar5009 card.. use they hp vista 64 
or 32 bit drivers cause the windows7 ones dont work

Ditto, I found the same thing here.  "Vista drivers" FTW.
