Go stuck in allowing the web-browser to NOT go thru 3g-radio.

I used this guide to be able to use the web-browser for more than amazons site (google is blocked in sweden via 3g).

Got everything to work thru terminal, with DNS and gateway:

[root@kindle root]# route add default gw 192.168.2.1
[root@kindle root]# ip route
192.168.2.0/24 dev usb0 src 192.168.2.2
default via 192.168.2.1 dev usb0

[root@kindle root]# ping www.google.se
PING www.google.se (109.105.109.234): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 109.105.109.234: seq=0 ttl=49 time=4.447 ms

But still nothing happens when trying web-browser in kindle.

I've tried both with 3g enabled and not activated.

I suspect this line will enable gateway via LAN (USB)

# vi /opt/amazon/ebook/config/framework.mario.conf
change the line:
USE_WAN : true
into:
USE_WAN : false

in 3.2.1 its called framework_luigi.conf (should be same?)

Still nothing.

- Could it still trying to go via proxy?
