XPERIA SL pc suite

i just got my XPERIA SL few days back...

i want to know "how can i use my phone as a modem???"

using pc companion i found that no option is present about connecting to internet through usb...

so someone clarify me how to get a working pc suite(one by sony ericsson is not detecting my phone)

or how to connect my pc to internet through my mobile...

ps: i tried usb tethering, but was not successful, so mention steps for that too...

PC Suite is long gone, there's only PC Companion (PCC) and Sony Update Service (SUS)

if you want to control your phone from your PC use My Phone Explorer.
