After long time I need some help with my Kindle DXG

I like to use USB networking to connect the Kindle to my local network. I have installed v3.2.1 firmware and some (old) Version of usbnetwork hack.

I'm using Ubuntu with this settings:

Code:

auto eth0
iface usb0 inet dhcp

auto usb0
iface usb0 inet static
    address 192.168.2.1
    netmask 255.255.255.0
    up echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
    up iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT
    up iptables -A POSTROUTING -t nat -j MASQUERADE -s 192.168.2.0/24 
    down echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
    down echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/iptables -t nat -F POSTROUTING

But I get no access to any website and Kindle like to always activate 3G. Telnet 192.168.2.2 from Ubuntu to Kindle works fine, ssh ask for a password(?) and ping from Kindle Terminal to IP 192.168.2.1 works.
