The PDAnet app has always worked for me in getting internet over USB. The only difference between the free and paid versions is that paid supports https.

I believe PDAnet is for tethering and @Yazid is asking for reverse tethering. – Sumit Nathany Dec 14 '11 at 6:27

Even I had tried but didn't work for me. However, you can try this:

Another option is to set up your laptop as a wifi hotspot. This might help-

I have set up the same way at home without a wifi router. I have a wireless adapter on my desktop and set up an adhoc network and I can access my internet connection on my phone. But there's a catch. It might not work without rooting your phone.
