IBU

Consol

• FreeBSD PC routing to Internet via USB cable to Android, thence WLAN to Router.,
• Notes:

• PC_______: Connecting usb creates these in /dev/ :
  • lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 9 Nov 9 21:24 ./ugen1.6 -> usb/1.6.0
  • crw------- 1 root operator 0x9a Nov 9 21:24 ./usb/1.6.0
  • crw------- 1 root operator 0x9c Nov 9 21:24 ./usb/1.6.1
  • crw------- 1 root operator 0x9d Nov 9 21:24 ./usb/1.6.3
• PC_______: For urndis USB Remote NDIS Ethernet device driver, Use FreeBSD-9.3-RELEASE or newer, not 9.2 & not 10.0, .
• PC_______: /boot/loader.conf Add if_urndis_load="YES" Or
  PC_______: /sys/amd64/conf/ Add "device urndis"
• Android_: Touch "Settings ; Connections ; Tethering and portable hot spot ; USB tethering";
  After a few seconds it shows "Tethered" + a green tick.
• The tethering causes these in /dev/ :
  • Disappears: usb/1.6.3
  • Adds: crw------- 1 root operator 0xa1 Nov 9 21:24 ./usb/1.6.2
• PC_______: ifconfig -a Or ifconfig ue0
• I should be able to call ifconfig from attach in devd.conf, but I fail with "Executing 'logger Unknown USB device: vendor 0x04e8 product 0x6863 bus uhub4' "
• PC_______: Shows: ue0: flags=8802<BROADCAST, SIMPLEX, MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
• PC_______: cp /etc/resolv.conf /tmp/resolv.conf.cp
• PC_______: [If PC is configured with /etc/rc.conf ifconfig_wlan0="DHCP" enabling DHCP for WLAN] The next dhclient will over-write /etc/resolv.conf with
  PC_______: "nameserver 192.168.42.129",
  PC_______: which kills routing to other devices on PC's ethernet.
• PC_______: dhclient -d ue0
• PC_______: cat /tmp/resolv.conf.cp /etc/resolv.conf | grep '^nameserver' | sort | uniq > /tmp/resolv.conf.tmp;
• PC_______: mv /tmp/resolv.conf.tmp /etc/resolv.conf
• PC_______: vi /tmp/resolv.conf.cp /etc/resolv.conf
• PC_______: ifconfig ue0
• inet 192.168.42.139 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.42.255
• PC_______: Shows local address assigned by Android to PC (a class C private).
• PC_______: arp -a -i ue0
• • (192.168.42.139) at 0f:0f:0f:0f:0f:0f on ue0 permanent [ethernet]
• Android__: Browser 192.168.42.139/cgi-bin/printenv shows REMOTE_ADDR="192.168.42.129"
• PC_______: Instead of dhclient and repairing /etc/resolv.conf, as [just my?] Android allocates the same numbers each time, one can just:
  
• PC_______: ifconfig ue0 192.168.42.139
• Android__: After enabling tethering on android, the android browser can see PC apache httpd (where I can stage downloaded android apps from internet).
• PC_______: ping 192.168.42.129
• Android__: Stops android screen becoming non responsive.
• Android__: Touch Internet icon. A browser starts
• Android: Each touch on a browser link URL (even a numeric local one), Android shows:
  "No network connection. Mobile data turned off. Connected to Wi-Fi network instead or turn on mobile data and try again."
  Just click OK each time, then it shows the new page.
• Android: Touch URL bar at top.
• Android: Type in 192.168.42.139
