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. |
The host configuration looks ok, as far as I can see, so it's probably your Kindle that is not configured correctly. Try setting the default route (something like "route add default gw 192.168.2.1"). If it doesn't work, try to understand whether packets are even arriving at the host pc, and what it does with them (e.g. "tcpdump - i any -proto icmp -nX -s 1000" on the host), then ping 8.8.8.8 from the Kindle. Or so.
