When i turn on usb tethering in atrix phone windows computers starts connection but the adapter has no ip address and i can't access the internet.

If i set ip address manually in windows sometimes i can access the internet.

I also have tried "wired tether for root users" and it doesn't work either.

Carrier doesn't block tether usage.

Any idea how to solve this?

I think the dhcp server in the phone is not working.

I'm looking for a solution not involving third party apps. Just android phone and maybe command line.

What rom? What kernel? Do you have updated drivers for your system?

And you really couldn't mention at least what ROM you're using? :rolleyes:
How come people never mention the most critical information when asking questions?

EDIT: I see I was late... but still.
Also why can't people learn that questions expecting answers need to go to Q&A?
