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
