Guest Majorair32 Posted November 7, 2009 Report Posted November 7, 2009 I have a i910 Omnia right now and I can upgrade to the Droid for free. I really want too but the only thing holding me back right now is teathering. I use it almost daily and really need it. So I dont want to make the switch until I know this can be done. Right now I teather via bluetooth to my netbook. I use the usb when i need to charge and teather at the same time. Then if I forgot my cable and i'm on a different computer you can use the wifi ap. Please let me know if anyone knows how to do this. Thanks :)

I'm sure it will not be too long before someone makes and app for tethering though.

Im planning on keeping my i910 so that when I really need the tethering.... maybe once or twice a week, I'll just call up VZ and swap them back it's a fairly painless process... I think there is a way you can do it without customer service getting involved.... Thats my plan until an easy tethering solution is made for the droid

I used to switch back and forth before when I had a moto q and my treo700wx back in the day. I hope that get a tether app or root the phone or something because. I have to trade my omnia in to get the droid.

Guest christopher2787 Posted November 9, 2009 Report Posted November 9, 2009 i know someone who can confirm that pdanet works perfectly on the droid. I tether with PDA.net using the droid no problem. I have been using the PDA.net software for years and have saved a bundle as a result. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

I have been using the PDA.net software for years and have saved a bundle as a result. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! Yup, I wanted to make sure I could tether as well and PDAnet works like a charm. Unfortunately the only way to tether right now is through the USB cord (no WiFi or Bluetooth just yet) and PDAnet costs $30. Otherwise it works great. I was tethered last night and was seeing speeds greater than or equal to the Omnia I had.

I was tethered last night and was seeing speeds greater than or equal to the Omnia I had. Quick question... this tethering is separate from what Verizon offers, right? They wanted to charge me $30/month (or something like that) to tether when it became available.
