Wired tethering? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

Does anyone know of any free wired tethering apps? I use wifi tether from the market for wireless tethering, but I'd like to connect my USB cable to a desktop with no Wi-Fi adapter and tether that way. I used to do that with my
EVO 3D with the hacked official hotspot app which supported both wired and wireless tethering. Just looking for something similar for the S3, I would appreciate any help

If you run cm9/10 there's an option built in for wired tether.

USB tether not working

HTC application installed on Windows 7 Dell laptop.
EVO is NOT rooted.
Hooked up cable, clicked internet sharing, and got...
"Error code 67. Registration failure. Your PCS Vision username and/or password may be incorrect. Please try again."
You are not paying for the tether that is what that means. They do not offer free tether. You will have to download something from the market place and internet.
pdaNet or easytether to USB tether your phone.
well damn. i had asked in the forums before i got the phone if wired tether was free, and people said yes, that only had to pay for the wireless tether.
live and learn.

with the old plan i had before this one, tether was included...or phone as modem...i hate that i lost that for the evo, but oh well...
with an application/hack it will be free.
wireless tethering is free now.. as is wired tether.
check out the development forum for how to setup wireless tethering, and to get wired tethering working -- search the market for PDAnet.
good luck

PDAnet isn't free
You can use an older version of PDAnet (v1.12 I think) and still do everything.
PM me for more details.

Older versions don't do BT tethering, that starts at 1.16. Just go download wireless tether for root users, it does both wireless tethering and BT tethering and it now works on a rooted evo.
BT tethering just means you drain your battery faster. Your Evo came with a USB cable so IMO thats what you should use.
I got the 4g on launch day, and have been using PDAnet since with no problems. It's free for 2 weeks, then blocks https after that. It's going for $19 last time I checked.
I wish I didn't have to do the extra steps it requires both before and after connecting it to my computer by USB, but I prefer free right now to $30 a month to Sprint on top of what I already pay.

why won't my wireless tethering connect to some devices?

i am using a Samsung Epic 4g that is rooted and i use wireless tether and it only works on some devices? my friend just tried connecting to my wifi via the wireless tethering but his device (Droid) did not find my wireless address? does this sound like a problem with his device? or is it something on my phone?
Its because android phones don't support ADHOC, so tethering won't work for them.
There may be a hack that i don't know of though.

ok i see. so now the next question is if anyone knows a hack let me know please lol!
I need a hack for this as well, does anyone know of one?
The newest wifi tether app experimental version 3 supports infrastructure mode, this works even with intel chipsets (which have been a chronic problem with wifi tether). I would try that.

[Q] built in tethering in CM7 - same as wireless tether/barnacle?

How does the wireless tethering in CM7 work? I'm guessing it's the same as the free workarounds, rather than using the verizon paid tethering method. can anyone confirm this?
Same question here. I have tried that and the wireless tether app and neither work for me.

i got wireless tether work by going in and setting it manually to adhoc mode or use barnacle tether
barnacle definitely works, i just want to know if the built in one will result in tethering charges.
No, the built in tethering doesn't incur any charges.

[Q] Direct USB Tether to PS3?

Hi guys!
Just a thought, I have a PS3 and I have access to a local wifi, but due to the wifi having a MAC Filter the PS3 can not connect so I had a thought of USB Tether my Wildfire to PS3..
BUT
When I read online, I saw that I must use a computer & Cross over Ethernet cable to the PS3, and I don't have a the right cable..FYI My computer is also allowed on the local wifi.
SO
My question is this: Is there anyway to DIRECTLY USB tether my Wildfire to the PS3?
Why not white list the PS3?
I wonder if just using the USB Tethering option in Cyanogenmod 7 would work?
Does your Wildfire have access to the Wifi?
I wonder if you were to use a USB Wifi Adapter connected to your Computer/Laptop to create a 'Hotspot' from which your PS3 could connect? Alternatively you could I guess try this maybe...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1172528 - (Reverse Tethering PC/Laptop Internet to Phone) and then whilst connected... setting up the portable hotspot feature on your phone?
I hope one of these works for you.
Hope I've not confused anyone too much lol

I do not have access to the router & I can't contact the guy who owns the wifi because he's working away for a while.

From what I understood, Portable Hotspot only uses 3G / hsdpa connection and I want to use WiFi connection as I do not have an unlimited data plan.
I have seen the Reverse Tether guide before and have used this for another Buzz I own.

[Q] Reverse Tethering on Macbook Pro

There are a number of excellent Reverse Tethering tools for Windows. However, I am unable to find a solution for Reverse Tethering from a Macbook Pro. (And yes, I have tried searching.)
Short of setting up a virtual Windows PC on my Macbook, does anybody know of a reverse tethering solution for Mac?
(Just to clarify: This is not USB tethering where I use my phone as the modem; this is using my computer's internet connection and passing the internet through the USB to the phone so I don't need to use my data connection.)
Thanks.

You could try setting up a WiFi Hotspot on your Macbook, and connect to the WiFi on your phone and tether that way.
Why not just use whatever WiFi the notebook connects to?

I'm new to the Macbook (coming from a Windows environment). I'll have to check that out. Thanks for the tip.

It's for when I'm at work...they only have a wired connection.
A quick search on Apple Support brought this up: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH6589
OS X 10.6 or later versions have tethering built-in.
