First of all you haven't mentioned clearly how ADSL is connected to your PC, so it will be difficult to precisely give you the answer. Anyway following is a general outline which may help you.
You can, if
your PC's ADSL has inbuilt WiFi & is configured accordingly or ADSL connected to WiFi & then to PC through cable or WiFi ...and on Trinity you simply have to turn on the WiFi from CommManager & it will be connected ( not to forget that if there is security key on PC's end then you'll have to enter on your trinity side as well)
I have a problem. ...well i have many, but this specifically -
I currently have a wirelss broadband router which sends the internet to the pc and the blackstone... but i cant figure out a way of connecting the pc to the blackstone wirelessly..... currently I have to access my pc with the usb cable....which is annoying....
my pc has asus wifi solo...
is there a way... ?
What excactly do you want to connect. ActiveSync isn't able to deal WiFi connections since a few versions, as this was mentioned to be a security issue.
If your HD is able to connect to the internet through your router, you have a valid connection, but you this doesn't mean that you can just access your HD with the explorer, or whatever you are supposed to do.
oh....so i cant connect to the blackstone with the pc through the broadband router...shame.... i could switch the pc wireless adapter to send mode to connect to the blackstone....but that would mean losing the internet whilst i did this..... how frustrating!!!

Actually this wouldn't bring any advantage. You have a valid IP connection between your HD and your PC, but you also need some services like FTP, HTTP, or whatever.
What about Remote Desktop to your PC?
I just got a Tattoo.. I think new users have always problem.
Somebody help me for the following:
1. I want to access internet at home on my laptop running Windows 7 by TETHERING with my Tattoo GPRS(EDGE). Is that USB connection and selecting 'Mobile Network Sharing'?? But I am still not able to success.
2. At my work place we have wired network, so I want to access Internet on my Tattoo by USB connection to a PC, just opposite of Tethering, let's say RETHETING. but I could not find anywhere.
Thnx

Thank you everybody. I resolve my 1st problem. Yes, it is just USB connection and selecting 'Mobile Network Sharing'. My problem was because of not able to install the NDIS driver properly. After resolving the driver problem it is working fine.
But I am still looking for my 2nd problem RETHETING

I'm not sure if it will work that way... I know with a Windows Mobile device you can, but never tried under Android. Perhaps there is an option somewhere in the HTC Sync program?
There definitely isn't an option in HTC Sync to do this. In fact, I don't know of any way of generically sharing your internet connection over USB. If your work PC has a Wi-Fi card, you could easily share the internet connection over an ad-hoc network.
Edit: In principle, you could also share your internet connection over Bluetooth but I'm pretty sure the Tattoo doesn't support the necessary Bluetooth profile(s) for such connections.

I think Wi-fi ad-hoc connection is for rooted androids only and I don't found any rooted tattoo till date. I tried another option, using Connectify on my Windows 7 laptop and sharing Wi-fi. But still unable to success browsing, eventhough my phone can be connected with my Laptop through this connectify.
Anybody have success browsing it kindly share.

Uh, what? I'm sharing my internet connection over Wi-Fi with my MacBook right now and my Tattoo can connect to it and access the internet just fine.
Edit: You're probably thinking of android-wifi-tether, which lets you share your phone's 3G/2G mobile connection via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth.

If you are talking about tethering, it is OK, I am just satisfied with USB tethering, it is working now, but What I am actually looking for is about RETHETING just converse connection of that tethering. (I know there is no word like RETHETING BUT I don't know what is the right term of just converse connection of tethering.) The problem is, I want to share wired Internet at my working place with my HTC tattoo phone as I have limited GPRS subscription to save some money and to enjoy speed of that wired internet.
I thought running Connectify on my Windows 7 laptop connected to that wired Internet as a Wi-fi hotspot then connected by this android phone (Tattoo) is the right solution.
Yes, it is connected pinging is ok but could not access internet from my Tattoo. May be some firewall problem or something I cannot figure out. If some one have solution it is most welcome.

No, I was talking about "retheting"; my MacBook has a wired (ethernet) connection to the internet and is sharing it over Wi-Fi, which my Tattoo can connect to and use.
I did some reading up on Connectify (and was surprised to find that Micro$oft still hasn't quite implemented the feature natively on Windows yet) and it should work. I don't have a Wi-Fi card on my desktop PC so I can't test it myself but perhaps you are having something like a firewall problem.

I have tried with Connectify and also Virtual Router on my Windows 7 but could not success. I think you are lucky to own a macbook. My Windows 7 is RC so it might be because of that or Tattoo may lack something.
Regarding that android-wifi-tether, it reports as rootted device required and could not help my requirement.
I thought you were talking about an usb internet sharing connections...
If you want to do it via wifi, is pretty easy, since ALL windows have the ad-hoc functionality made by default. Problem is that if you use it with your wifi chipset then you won't be able to conect directly to other wifis if it is your main connect unless you buy another wifi card for this purpose...
in windows 7 you can find this functionality under the connection center... in windows xp is a little bit difficult because you have to configure the adapter into the wifi adapter properties in network connections tabs.

I also thought that it should be very easy, and tried all possible means that I know but could not success. One funny thing is, I can get IP address resolved of any URL on my tattoo after wifi connection. It means it can reach DNS server and can resolve IP address but still could not able to browsing. May be some firewall or Antivirus is blocking the browsing on my Windows 7 pc I need to check thoroughly.
If someone have good explanation, it will be very helpful... thanks.
Wifi is working
I was making my laptop complicated by setting 3 static IP networks..as my work place has 3 gateways and I manually change gw when required. I clean it up and set to only one. Now Internet through Wifi of Laptop is OK I am using Connectify on Windows7.
Thx for the patience.
But still waiting for solution on USB "Retheting"

I've never seen a pc/laptop that transmits wifi. Seen ones that can receive it.

Well wireless adapters have to both send and receive so pretty much all computers with a wireless adapter can transmit.
Don't quite understand the question though, are you trying to set up your pc as an access point so you can access the internet on your hd2 by it going through your pc?

If you mean tethering your HD2 to your PC and allowing your PC to connection to the internet via your phones internet then just go to the Andriod Market and do a serch for tether apps or internet sharing apps. If your PC has WiFi capabilities just use a hotspot app.
If you mean share your computers internet connection with your HD2, I really don't know it that is possible. But to do it you would have to go into your connections settings on your PC and he k allow other computers and devices to connect to the internet through this computer. It might be in networking. But what is easieast is just vet a WiFi router and use the WiFi apartheid ilities to connect.

Sorry about the spelling I was sleepy when I typed that. The easy way is to get a WiFi router to hook up to your home internet connection and set up a WiFi network at your home. Then you can use your HD2'S WiFi capabilities to connect to your WiFi network while at home. It is really nice because you do not have to be tethered to a computer or a hub with a USB cable. Now to be honest I really don't know if you can share your computers internet connection with your HD2 via your USB cable. If it is possible you will have to check allow other computers and devices to connect to the internet through this computer. This should be in networks you might have to try to set up a home network on your computer to allow your HD2 to connect to the internet via your USB cable. Hope this helps.
I had see an option to share PC's internet connection with phone via USB in motoman MyPhone 4G port for HD2. did not test it tho'

It's possible.
Please use "Reverse USB Tethering" with a kernel which supports USB Tethering.
