Pensacola Computer Help Technoblog

Pensacola Computers Presents how to tether your Motorola Xoom Android 3 tablet to a DroidX using the free Wireless Tether app. This will work on phones that have the ‘ability’ to create a wireless hotspot but do not have the Verizon hotspot plan.

   pdanet uses an adohoc connection which is not recognized by the Xoom or a number of other tablets, I have no problem using wifi-tether with the Xoom, but even better, I can just bluetooth my Droid X to my Xoom which doesn’t require me to do anything on my phone once the devices are paired – I just activate the tether link on my Xoom and I am good to go.
