I have this same problem on Windows 7. WTF!? This is driving me crazy. I can't 
find any help anywhere!!!!! I can only connect to mt HTC Evo for internet, 
which is nice but much slower than my home connection. I'm somewhat tech savvy 
so when problems like this present themselves it gets frustrating. Can anyone 
help a brother out!?

I am having this exact same issue on my Evo. I have tried the phone on 3 
different PC's running XP & Vista. Tried a different tether app all together 
and got the same result. So, the issue is with the phone itself. Anybody 
figured out what settings in the phone/ROM have to be changed to get this 
working?
