Why didn't you use XDAndroid's wifi tethering app?  It worked great, but again... it used an adhoc network, which most laptops can handle - but Android devices cannot connect to adhoc networks, and the TouchPad is in the same boat AFAIK. |
I don't know really why I didn't try the XDA wifi app other than at the time so much stuff was still broken in the build(frx06) that I felt barnacle would automatically set up my configuration. I know my Archos 10.1 did connect but I cannot remember weither it would fail after awhile or not. Keep in mind up until a year ago I knew nothing about android so I was a little gun shy.
