Connecting to Networks and Devices
TIP!
If your computer is running
Windows 7 or a recent distribution of
some flavours of Linux (such as Ubuntu),
you don't usually need to prepare your
computer for tethering. But if you're
running an earlier version of Windows
or another operating system, you may
need to prepare your computer to
establish a network connection via USB.
For the most current information about
which operating systems support USB
tethering and how to configure them,
