Hi all,

I've been following this topic keenly. But somehow I cannot get my usbnetwork to work on my Mac for my DX.

My Airport has IP of 180.182.7.31

So I edit Host IP to be 180.182.7.32
And Kindle IP to be 180.182.7.33
And I remove the # as per earlier posts in the script.

After issuing `usbNetwork and connecting to the Mac, an adapter was detected, which I enter IP as 180.182.7.32.

Then I went over Internet Connection Sharing and share my Airport with this new adapter.

Next, I'm stuck. I can ping 180.182.7.32 but not 180.182.7.33 (Kindle IP).
I cannot telnet into the Kindle too. I either get connection refused or timeout.

I'm not sure if I miss any steps. Or if I set the IP addresses wrongly?

Appreciate if any gurus here can advise.

Thanks!
