I tried frisbee and sns and still no go where as windows 7 detects and connects easily. I'll try tethering later.

When will a 64bit version be? It depends on what are you talked out. If it was 64-bit kernel and modules then you can easily swap from 32-bit stock kernel and zdrv file of QuickPup to 64-bit kernel and zdrv from other 64-bit puppy. Just replace vmlinuz file and rename the donor zdrv file of other ...
