Re: Tethered speed difference, usb vs wifi

Yup this is pretty well known even for windows mobile. I believe its due to the fact the phone does not have to pass the data through both radios and do all the processing power of doing that which is most likely the reason the data slows down. In my opinion I see no reason to ever use wireless tether unless your sharing the connection to multiple people. Its really cool I have it on my phone but honestly I always use wired tether, the phone is being charged while plugged in and the data speed is faster just makes perfect sense.
