When you say, is DNS taking care of it, I guess not. DNS of which device??
I assume you start wireless hot spot on phone, either open or wpa2, then connect the Touch Pad to the phone's wifi hotspot. I described what the kluged Tablet's auto IP settings are saying. And I cannot find the ip config settings on the phone to manually input into the Touchpad. (ie its gateway address, device ip and dns server ip address.)
I assume I want the phone's wi-fi hotspot to connect to 3g Sprint / Boost network.... hence I have not started the phone's wireless ap. (well, i tried that several times, as well).
Not sure what else to say except I've been trying for 24 hrs

I'm talking about DHCP, not DNS. Please don't mix up terms here, it's very important.
I guess I'll see if I can manually configure... I've never needed to, it's always 'just worked'.
I haven't used this feature in a while, and I can't seem to 'see' the network on my work PC. I don't have a lot of options to muck with this computer, I'll test more when I'm home. However, last time I did attempt to use the built in wifi tethering it was fraught with problems. Honestly I think you'd be better served using WinMo's wifi tethering app.
Ironically I've had good success in WinMo with wifi tethering, but horrible success USB tethering. The exact opposite was true with Android - great success USB tethering, but I always had issues with wifi tethering in Android. Food for thought.
