PPCGeeks - Tethering the Touch - Best/Fastest method

There are several methods for tethering the Touch so there seems to be some confusion on the best/fastest method out there.

I previously had the HTC Mogul and used the "Wireless Modem" method to tether to my laptop. Worked flawlessly, fast, and provided a rock solid connection via USB and BT. Needlessly to say, I found this "wireless modem" method to be the best.

Credit for this method goes to TalynOne in the HTC Titan forum.

Why is this better than other methods such as Internet Sharing, PDANet, or USBModem?

Better than PDANet because:
It's free
Doesn't rely on ActiveSync
Can be shared. Since "Wireless Modem" works through a dial-up adapter, on Windows XP/Vista machines it can be shared with other clients via ICS (Internet Connection Sharing). For instance I've connected via my laptop, and shared that connection via a crossover network cable from my laptop to an XBox 360, to let the XBox 360 access the Internet!

Better than USBModem because :
It's free (Wireless Modem's behavior is pretty much identical to USBModem)

Better than the "Internet Sharing" application (included with WM5 AKU3+) because:
It's not NAT'ed, you get a public IP with "Wireless Modem". NAT'ed connections are problematic with some games and applications, such as certain VPNs.
Since it's not NAT'ed there's less communication overhead, resulting in a slightly better latency, and faster transfer speed.
