The Android-Wifi-Tether uses Ad-Hoc connection..so your devices need to support that..as for USB tether..if your talking about the android-usb-tether? that one needs a modified kernel...

Things you can try:

Adding MobileAP (make sure to clockworkmod backup before trying)
See if the Froyo USB Tether works (I'm assuming your on froyo)
PDAnet (The free version though does not support HTTPS though)

How has detection been on this front? Anyone seen their bill spike that tethers either wirelessly or via cable?

Has the new Froyo leaks been tested yet for this?

Sorry for hijacking the thread!

No bill spike...all the methods I mentioned above should work with froyo..except I have not tried MobileAP yet..I'm typing this right now tethering with Android-Wifi-Tether on Froyo

i just had to unlock a friends phone. its was a little more complicated than it seemed but with a little research and the help from these fine people i was able to figure it all out.... at work right now but unless someone one beats me to it, i present instructions as to what i did in hopes that it would help you out too.

I'll try the "ad hoc" thing later.
I've seen iPad users connect with wi-fi tether on youtube.

Just use the MobileAP method and you should have no problems...

I think what going on is that it using N for adhoc wifi which the ipad does not support....so you'll have to get clockwork :/..if not you can "probably" install it via ADB push as well :/
