Basically this is what you need to do on your tilt.

1. Start -> Settings->Connections -> USB to PC (put a check in the box), OK
2. Start -> Settings->Connections -> Connections
3. Click add a new modem connection (follow the setup wizard, enter your settings) OK
4. Find an application on your Tilt called Internet Sharing (could be under programs or under Settings->Connections.
5.Choose the connection type for the PC (in your case 'usb').
6.Under Network connection, you will find the new connection you made in step #3.
7. Press connect.

***You may have to uncheck #1 if you are having trouble connecting with phone and/or Activesync. (try checked first)

This is off the top of my head, so I may have left something out. I use this method with bluetooth so it should be almost the same.
