Hi there,
I still new to use arc and android, just would like to check with all experts, I am trying to use the tethering feature and connect my arc with pc companion, but once I enable the tethering feature and the connection between arc and computer is disconnected.
Is it really like this? normal?
use tethering for internet connection since I have no broadband at home. Think of connect both to update software from original SE website....
Kindly advice.
Don't use pc companion, but instead change your device to Mass Storage mode and use the native Android USB Tether. You can find this option in Settings, Wireless networks, Tethering and Portable hotspot, Enable USB Tethering. I've been using it without a hassle since I got my arc.
PS: there's a Q&A section right under this one.
caN I USE arc to access my broadband connection of my computer via usb cable? IF YES THEN PLEASE EXPLAIN HOW TO CONNECT?
yes, i am using the tethering which u mentioned above to go internet at home since no broadband.
recently i think of upgrade my arc to 2.3.3 using pc companion.
but i encounter a issue that i have connected pc n arc using pc companion, when i want to update phone, i enable the tethering function, then the pc disconnected with my arc ord, how to solve? thks for advice!

I've just bought a defy, but i can't get tethering to work. When i select tethering in the options and connect to my pc i cannot connec to the internet as i cannot find the connection. On m old sony ericcson phone this could be done via the sony ericcson software but so far i have been unable to find anything like that for the defy.
I have a laptop with windows xp and a desktop with windows7.
what exacly are you trying.?
connecting the internet from your pc by your phone, or from your phone by pc.?
wifi tehering are actualy used to connect your pc/notebook to internet using the 3G Internet-Connection from the phone.

the other way is, to create a adhoc network (share internet-connection) on your pc.

hope it helps.
I use easytether, free from the market, to connect my debian laptop to the internet with no problems.

What im trying to do is connect my phone to a P.C and then use the Defy's 3G internet connection on my P.C.
Theres an option in the phones settings labelled as Internet tethering, this says "Share your phones Internet connection over USB & Bluetooth."
When ticked it says something about choosing your phone from a list of network services in your computers network settings.
and that is as far as i can get.
Does the computer in question have wi-fi?
Because, if so, the mobile hotspot functionality might be easier to implement.
Easytether works great for me. Get the app on market, works for unrooted too.

is there any way that arc detect this wireless connection or i HAVE TO buy a wireless modem/rooter? :|
thanks in advance
Try "mhotspot" "." "com" (I can't post the link yet) , its a free hotspot converter for your computer.
why sony ericsson doesnt allow to phone use the internet connection from pc ?
There's not much demand for it, most people have wifi routers these days.
You can use your PC's internet connection on your phone if you have Linux (through USB) or laptop (through Wi-Fi) with Conectify or similar programs.
Also, I don't think the blame's on SE, but on Android OS.
Yeah i guess this is about android and did u ever try to search about bluetooth connection? we were using this at java phones, example w series...
htc wildfire s has option for using pc net in mobile...
How is your computer connected to the internet? Cable? WiFi? Something else?
Does your computer have WiFi?
If your computer is connected via cable to modem/router, and it has WiFi, create a WiFi network to share the connetion and connect via your phone.
