[Q] How to tether over USB?

---

I know you can wifi tether and I know about PDANet. Are there any other options for tethering over USB? Something minimal and free?

Using your phone as a modem (USB tethering)

You need your SIM card inserted on your phone to use the data connection.

Before you can use your phone as a modem, be sure to install HTC Sync on your computer first.

Make sure your phone’s data connection is turned on.
Connect the phone to the computer using the provided USB cable.
On the Connect to PC screen, select USB tethering, and then tap Done.
