Can I use my Android mobile (Galaxy SII) as a traditional modem, eg via USB connection to PC? PC would ideally be Linux but I have pcAnywhere installed on both.
This might get you started (the specific mechanics as to how it is setup, I'm not sure):
I think tethering (be it over USB, wifi, or bluetooth) of the phone to a laptop will only give you access to the carrier's network connection. I don't think that the GSII has an analogue modem which will allow connection to a remote modem.
