i'm accesssing internet through my htc wildfire s which is connected to my laptop through internet passthrough..

the problem is that-web pages donot open up in opera but they do open in default browser..is opera unable to open pages while in this mode..is there any fix??

and i can't even download market apps while connecting like this...i can surf through the market but when i click download...nothing happens...it gets started when i connect using gprs..later.

Wow, so you're using your broadband connection to surf on your cell? like reverse tethering?

If that's what you're doing, can you please link me to a site which can help me do it? I've been searching everywhere!

Then maybe I can report to you how stuff is after I try it myself.

Seems like it's only possible on HTC devices ;/. Sad. Is there any other way?
