How do I do tethering with an HTC Desire on the Swiss carrier Swisscom? When I plug the phone and pick share internet, my computer asks me for phone number, username and password; oh, and it says I plugged in a modem.

  • How are you trying to tether? Are you using PDAnet?

Are the correct drivers for your Desire installed on the laptop? I'm using Windows 7 and with the correct (64 bit) drivers installed, it just connects to the Desire and sees it as a connected network adapter.

  • I wasn't aware it needed drivers. I thought USB network interfaces were all the same, like USB mice, that you plug and it just works.
