USB Tethering Driver
Where can I get the driver needed to USB tether my Streak 5 with a windows PC. The drivers on the download site work for accessing the Streak through USB as a drive but not for tethering. Can someone at Dell please check into this for me. I need the USB tethering driver for my Unlocked Streak 5

Yeh and I doubt support would be any help. They never seemed to know anything about the streak when I talked to them before.

HELLOOOOOO DELL.... anybody home???
I've had no problem using PdaNet on my past 4 phones and can't get it to work on this streak because there is no driver for it.
I notice several other similar question related to this was asked and ALL were ignored by Dell.
I have one week left before my 30 days is up and if I can't get my streak to USB Tethering, then I'm taking it back and will get another brand phone.
This is my first Dell phone and may well be the last.

I've used that but never got the usb tethering working with that on windows XP. I will boot into my Win7 partition and see if works but if I recall correctly I never got usb tethering to work.
