USB/WiFi/BT Tethering on Linux?

[Guest Massimo Gengarelli]

Hi, I'd like to use my Acer Liquid for tethering the connection and navigate using my laptop and my phone as a modem.

When I owned an HTC Tattoo there was a voice under Wireless Settings to easily do that, while on Acer Liquid there isn't.

If I'm using Windows I just use pdaNet but under Linux I'd like to have a better tethering, as I need to use SSH, FTP and many other services. I tried proxoid but it's just basilar HTTP and that's not what I really want.

WiFi tethering using the app found in the Market doesn't work, neither do BT via pdaNet.

I'm using LCR 1.6 over 1.100 Android 2.1 leaked bin.

Tetherbot ( usb tether app) works like a charm under lCR 1.6. I am writting these work on my computer, using my phone wifi connection (edge/3g works too).

You can use SSH FTP too as tetherbot acts like a socks proxy.

Using PdaNet and ArchLinux I've got BT tethering without problems.

Now let's hope for Acer to release the kernel sources so we may have WiFi tethering :rolleyes:

I use PROXOID to share the internet when needed. It uses USB cable and the development kit needs to be installed on the computer. Works really good.
