I had to install the NDIS stuff manually but it works now. This is how my current setup looks, excuse the german.
USBnet itself isn't even installed yet -- I think you guys might be already talking about configuring the WiFi aspect of the hack while I was still talking about the netcat stuff mostly which should be possibly without the WiFi aspect and just with the USBNet hack integrated into the diag partition.
So for the WiFi part I basically change the address that I have currently entered (192.168.15.1) to one which lies on the same subnet as my network PC address (192.168.0.17) so e.g. 192.168.0.18 and change the usbnet config accordingly.
I'm not sure what you mean by yet, but I guess I'll find it in the wiki somewhere...? |
Your manually-assigned IP address settings look like they should work, but the preferred IP address for the host PC is 192.168.15.201. Using 192.168.15.1 will cause some network diags to not work correctly. Not that it really matters, but giving conflicting recommended IP addresses will just confuse people needlessly.
And yes, for the wifi interface, you can use server-assigned IP addresses, and look in your wireless router to find the IP address of your kindle and/or your host PC. They should automatically be on the same subnet (192.168.0.x in your case). If you are having wifi connection problems, it could be firewall / iptables related...
