My office computer is installed with 2 OS - Win7 64 ultimate and Ubuntu 11.10. The system is connected to LAN (intranet). When i tether my galaxy note's internet connection with this computer via usb, i can access internet only in ubuntu and unable to connect to internet in windows. When i connect G.Note i disable the LAN connection. But surprisingly when i run ping command its ok... i tried explorer as well as firefox in windows but didn't succeed

android dont need pc suite, just install the android drivers (you should have got a cd with the box) and select usb tethering in wireless settings..

check in ubuntu browser network settings whether it is using direct connection or proxy connection & use same setting in windows browser.
