Does anyone know if it is faster tether with a Notebook using USB rather then Bluetooth?

Thanks

i would recommend just trying each way, see which works better for you
my favorite 'phone as modem' connection method is WMWifiRouter :mrgreen:

USB is much faster, up to 480Mbits/second versus Bluetooth 2.0 @ 3Mbits/second. I have used both and there is no comparison. I found that bluetooth is great only for synching and small file transfers.

i have a mac and thus use bt for simplicity sake, and i tether damn near 24hrs a day downloading torrents, streaming pandora, and constantly refreshing ppcgeeks, and myspace and i am quit satisfied with my speed. and im not even Rev A yet. :D

oh sh*t i didnt even notice that the OP has a vogue... how did i get in this forum? lol
in that case, my bad, my second choice would be tethering via USB (internet sharing)

Thanks again.

No wireless technology is faster than a cable. Even ur wireless network will never be as fast as the ethernet. here's the question. How fast does electricity travels? and how fast does sound travels? figure it out. Thanks

Tethering over bluetooth vs usb is the same as BT is still way faster than Rev A.

Now as for file transfers, that's a whole different thing altogether ;-)
