How to share internet connection from notebook to mobile phone with micro usb cord in Debian based OS? (reverse tethering)

I want to share internet connection from notebook to my mobile phone (Keon) with micro usb cord (because I don't have wifi). I found in Firefox OS (version: Boot2Gecko 1.1.1.0-prerelease) Settings only the possibility to share internet from mobile phone to PC. I use a Debian based OS: Knoppix. I tried to accomplish this with Networking Manager and I did a new wired connection via my phone with "Shared to other computers" IPv4 Settings and with FE:...:02 (usb0) MAC address. But on my phone there is not internet although the connecton between my notebook and phone is estableshed.

Hi Pimpo,
Thank you for posting your question. I was trying to reproduce your the Shared network, and I would love to know what kind of network you used to connect. This is not possible as of yet and I will file a bug being able to do this, but to make sure I have the right steps on the bug can you confirm the set up of the shared network please?
Also this is currently not possible because the software does not know how to send network traffic over usb, assuming you do not have the ability to turn the computer into a wifi hot spot, which I would recommend instead...

  • How to share Internet connection from Leopard to iPhone 3G?

    Hi!
    How do you share Internet connection from Leopard to iPhone 3G?
    So far I've managed to create a network and I joined my iPhone to the network. But when I turn on Internet Sharing from Leopard, iPhone's Safari won't use the connection. It either starts to use EDGE/3G or says that it isn't connected to the Internet...
    What went wrong?

    I have managed to get it work, but only when I completely turn my desktop computer's firewall off. To do this, select the Security icon in System Preferences, then click the Firewall tab. Next, select the 'Allow all incoming connections' option. I wish there was a way to configure individual ports so that I didn't have to leave my firewall wide open, but I haven't figured out how to do that so far.

  • How to share internet connection from cable modem through built-in airport on imac?

    I have a cable modem with ethernet going into imac. How can I share the internet connection using the iMacs built in airport with other computers that have airport cards?
    I would love to put an ethernet router between the imac and the modem and share the internet connection using the iMacs built in airport with other computers that have airport cards as well.
    Thanks!

    The setup I had working is what I have connected to the internet now. A cable modem with one ethernet jack that plugs into the iMac. The airport from the iMac broadcast to my G5 with an airport card in it and received the internet connection. The PC received it the same way from the iMac but to a Netgear wireless adapter.
    I messed things up recently adding a wired 4 port ethernet router between the iMac and the modem, so that the modem ethernet plugged into the router, and from the router, plugged into the iMac which then could receive the internet but no more airport connections to my other machines. Haven't been able to get it working since.

  • How to get internet connection from Airport Express to a PC?

    I recently bought an Airport Express to get internet connection from my new MAC COMPUTER TO ANOTHER PC which is located in another room. For unknown reason, I could not get the other PC to work. Any idea how to fix it so that I can get internet connection for my PC? Many thanks for your expert assistance.

    Currently, the Airport Express (not the Airport Express Extreme router) is acting as a base station via Ethernet to a cable modem.
    I guess that it would be correct to assume that your new Mac can connect wirelessly to the AirPort Express base station, and access the Internet that way.
    I am not sure if my 41/2 year old HP(Hewlect Packard) PC - (with AMD Athlon 64 3400 processor) which I am unable to get internet connection now is Wi-Fi capable.
    You said "Prior to using the new Airport Express,I was using the Linksys wireless G router and have a wireless adapter sitting on top of my PC.". The wireless adapter would be Wi-Fi certified (they normally are). Is it a USB adapter? Please post back with the exact model.
    Question: do I still need to use the adapter or not? Or the new Airport Express is enough to send internet signal to the PC?
    A Wi-Fi adapter would act as a wireless network card for a PC, and should communicate wirelessly with an AirPort Express base station without a problem (providing that the chosen security/encryption is supported on both sides). Since the wireless adapter apparently was OK (with the Linksys router), you should be able to continue using it. Any other (built-in) wireless capability ought to be externally visible at the PC as a PCI card with an antenna.
    Does the (Windows?) PC operating system detect any wireless networks? Is your AirPort Express on this list (even if you cannot connect or access the Internet)?

  • How to share internet connection using 5G wifi/channel 36~48

    I'm using a 15 inch late 2013 MacBook Pro with retina display running 10.10.1 and iPhone 5S A1530 running iOS 8.1.
    I use an Apple thunderbolt to ethernet adapter at work for internet and it's all cool and fine.
    The problem comes when I try to share the internet connection with my phone through wifi. It's alright if I use channel 1 to 11. But when I try the 5G channels: 36, 40, 44, 48, it just doesn't work. The wifi icon in the top right corner of my screen has a wave animation and then nothing. It just goes back to grey instead of an arrow pointing upwards. In the slimmest hope of a display error, I search nearby wifi signal with my phone and nothing.
    I have a 5G router at home and both my laptop and my phone can connect to its 5G signal. So the hardware should be fine.
    It's weird since it should be working as Apple decided to put an option there for user to choose from all the channels, among which lie the four 5G channels.
    So to conclude, my laptop with a functioning 5G wifi module can share internet connection through 2.4G wifi but not 5G.
    Hope someone could help me with it. Thanks.

    I've turned on NAT and attempted to create a new Subnet using DHCP but it doesn't offer me Airport in the network interface menu (only en0 and fw0). Airport is turned on in network system prefs.
    Have you actually configured the AirPort network with its own IP address settings (in a different subnet from the wired ethernet port)?
    Having the interface enabled isn't enough to make it a viable gateway interface. It needs an IP address/subnet mask too.

  • How to share internet connection with KDE networkmanager applet

    I mainly use wireless around my house and like to use one computer to share it's wireless to another when installing Arch, until I can get KDE and networkmanager installed so I can easily connect to the wireless. I've always been able to easily share internet connections with Ubuntu, but when I try it with Arch, with Gnome OR KDE (and their respective applets), It just doesn't work.
    Is there some library or backend I need to install to make ICS work?
    Thanks!

    If this helps at all, here is what I am currently trying: I open up the network settings KDE Control Module, select "Wired", select the device (eth0) and click edit, and under the "IPv4 Address" tab  selecting "Shared" from the "Method" drop-down.
    Also, to make it clearer, I am trying to share wlan0(on device 1) through eth0 to eth0 on device 2. Also, device 2 is running the Arch setup and I am telling it to connect to eth0 via DHCP after I select the remote mirror to use. I have managed to do this before when device 1 ran Ubuntu.
    I've searched Google, the forums, read the wiki pages for KDE and networkmanager, and can't seem to find a mention of internet connection sharing (pertaining to my usage case; the forums have some posts of people trying to use their computer to broadcast eth0, I'm trying to do the opposite) anywhere on them. In fact, I'll gladly write the section myself if I figure this problem out.
    Hope this extra information helps!

  • How to share internet-connection over vpn

    Hallo,
    first, sorry for my bad english...
    i have a mac mini 2011 with os x mavericks and os x server.
    i use a vpn connection for my mobile clients. these clients need to connect to the internet with the same connection as the server.
    how do i share the connection for my vpn clients?
    thx
    cgwaldt

    Mr. cgwaldt:
    I just ran some tests and confirmed the method.  To mask your ip address via your vpn do the following.
    1. Create a vpn connection to your server.
    2. Use Finder to start your ScreenSharing.app.  This app is located at /System/Library/CoreServices/ScreenShare
    3. When you start the app, it will ask you for the ip address of the network computer.  Enter the ip address of your server.
    4. Log in with a registered account on that server.
    5. Do all your work through the shared screen.
    I have taken a screen shot.  You will see two browsers in the screen shot.  One is open on my local computer, and the other is open on the ShareScreen app.  The one in the ShareScreen app shows the static IP address of my office.  The one that is on my local machine shows the dynamic IP address provided by my mobile internet provider.  Note, my advice in a previous post was not entirely correct; I am forcing all traffic through the VPN tunnel in this picture, and I expected my local machine to have the static ip address that is the same as the one in the ShareScreen app.  Even with all network traffic going back to my home server, I run into the problem that you spoke of, but the solution is to use that connection to work from a home computer, and then the problem is solved.
    Any work you do on your server using the ShareScreen app will use internet packets marked with your static IP address.  The connection was not nearly as slow as I had thought it would be. There is a delay between the typing of text and the appearing of the text on the screen, but if you are good at typing, this should not slow you down.
    In this example, the webpage that is showing 173.198.104.130 would be the one that you would use for your billing.  That IP address is the static IP of my office, which is where the "Mavericks1" computer is located.
    For this test, I used a mobile hotspot on an Android Ice Cream Sandwhich operating system running on an HTC Rizound celular phone.  The connection speed is mediocre, and the delay was not bad.  If you are working in a hotel or have access to a much better wireless connection, then the delay will probably be minimal at best.
    I hope this helps.

  • Lynksys E900 Wireless-N300 Router - Help needed to share internet connection from PC to home network

    Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me out with a problem I have:
    I am currently connecting my PC to a mobile phone as a Wireless Access Point to give that PC access the internet. I also have a small home network, with one other PC and a Game Console. I own a Linksys E900 Wireless-N300 Router. My problem is this. How do I share that internet connection with the rest of the home network?
    To the best of my knowledge its not possible to connect my mobile phone directly to my Linksys E900 Wireless-N300 Router, although if anyone has any ideas how to do this I'd love to hear!
    So my alternative idea is to connect to the internet via one PC, set up that internet connection as "Shared." and then allow the other devices on the home network to connect thru this. My question is how do I set up my  Linksys E900 Wireless-N300 Router to allow my other PC and game console connect to the internet? Bridge Mode? PPPoE? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! PS: both PC's are running on Windows 8

    I have Cisco Linksys E900 router. I want to make my home Wi-Fi zone. But I don’t have Static IP. One more thing is that Service provider have web page Authentication. I have username and pass.
    I am able to make SSID and security for my WI-FI LAN. I can use internet on one device. If I tried from second device again it’s asking me for username and password. While login it’s showing your first session in not logout. (Means I have to logout from 1st device and have to login on 2nd device.)
    Is there any option that I can Use my all devices at same time?   

  • How to share dialup connection from XP (ICS) through Airport Extreme?

    Is it possible to configure my Airport extreme (gigabit version) and client computers to share out a dialup connection coming from an XP machine using ICS?
    I figure I could pick up one of the old airport router that had a built in modem, but figured I'd try this approach first. thanks
    Here is a graphic that shows what I'd like to set up
    http://spfarm.com/network.jpg

    Hi, is the AEBS/n going to have it's own internet connection. This is important, because you can't have two gateways on the same subnet. This means you can't have both Dialup and ADSL on the same subnet.
    If your only gateway to the internet is your dialup throught ICS, then you are forced to use the DHCP service provided by XP. However, XP DHCP server is very simple, and you can't change server computer's IP address, or change the range of allocated addresses. And you MUST disable the DHCP on the AEBS/n.
    To summarize, you can only have one gateway per subnet, so if the XP is setup to use ICS, you must setup AEBS/n as a bridge.

  • How to share internet connection over wifi to an ethernet decive using airport express?

    Hi i have a device that it can only be connected to the internet via ethernet in a diferent room (and far) where my primary internet connection is. I have my network configured like this: cable modem >>>  connected via ethernet >>> to airport time capsule >>> connectes via wi fi >>> to airport express last generation "n" >>> connected via ethernet cable to device. The problem is that i'm not having internet conection in my ethernet connected device. Anyone know if I have to configure something in some special way or if i'm doing something wrong?
    Thanks
    Guido

    It should work fine..
    To figure this out, check if the Express is connected by wireless properly and getting an IP.. you will see that in airport utility.
    Make sure you are set to either extend or join the wireless network. The Express should then pass an IP to the "device".
    No luck start over.. reset everything to factory.
    If the TC is older model use 7.6.1 firmware.. it works much better for extend wireless.
    Use short names.. 2-20 characters no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
    Then set the Express again in extend wireless mode.
    It is pretty easy in v6 airport utility. Look at the posts from Bob Timmons on how to extend wireless.. he must have answered those question a thousand times in the last few years.
    Here is one I did. https://discussions.apple.com/message/24161378#24161378

  • How to share internet access from iPhone with home LAN

    Hello,
    Sorry if this has been asked before, but I just bought an iPhone and am trying to use it to provide internet access to a LAN at my cottage where only dial-up is possible with my ISP. Although this is easily accomplished by enabling internet sharing on my iMac and plugging it into my router's WAN port, I do not have any access to my IP printer or to my SONOS music system. Any pointers?
    Thanks,
    Martin Girard

    Well, getting internet access for my iMac is straightforward using USB tethering (I live in Canada, no AT&T crap). Then, I can share this connection with other computers (via ethernet in my case) by enabling internet sharing (in the Sharing control panel). My problem is that once I plug my iMac in the WAN port of my router, I can't access my LAN anymore. Any ideas???

  • How to share internet connection with 8gig Ipod touch

    Hi all, I'm about to buy a 8gig touch tommorow and would like to know before I buy it, How can I share my HSDPA Three broadband connection with the Touch? the Connection is a usb dongle on the desktop, I've got a usb wifi dongle plugged into the desktop aswell, i havent a clue how to set it up tho, why I want to know is, so I can listern to shoutcast radio stations on the touch upstairs in bed without having to stay downstairs near the dessktop. is it possible to do and if it is how ? cheers

    Your touch can connect to your wireless network via WiFi. How your network is setup makes all of the difference on whether or not you can connect, however.
    If your desktop is connected via Ethernet (even with a USB adaptor) you may be able to use the desktop as an ad hoc wireless network. This is possible on Macs ad Vista machines, not sure on XP.
    Your best bet is a wireless router, however. They generally have more range than an ad hoc setup and have additional benefits such as a firewall and network security. You would connect your broadband connection to your wireless router and then all of your devices, wired or wireless would connect through your router.
