It is best not to do any other internet stuff while tethered unless you have a very good data plan.

Chaley, my Verizon has started charging me data for my tethered transfers - also on my mifi transfers. Didn't used to be that way. I remember turning on my mifi with no bars, no internet connection, yet CC connected fine to my computer. Not any longer, requires internet connection. Since I've changed nothing (knowingly) in my tablet or computer, I suspect Verizon did something. My recourse is to use the library for transferring and I've just bought a new ereader to download books via usb for those times I can't get to a free wireless connect.
I love cc and understand your reasons for not changing it to usb transfer, so I'm not advocating that. I just wanted to let folks know that something has changed with Verizon over the last 3 months that appears to be causing this for me.
Edit: I'm going to try some of the suggestions in
