broadcast to router
hi
i connect to the internet using my phone (/etc/init.d/net.usb0)
i want to pipe this connection from my computer into a router and broadcast it
how would i go about doing this?
i also have an ath9k wireless cardCode:eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr e0:cb:4e:44:f3:83 inet addr:192.168.1.100 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::e2cb:4eff:fe44:f383/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:1219 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:1140 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:23 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:818864 (799.6 KiB) TX bytes:105753 (103.2 KiB) Interrupt:19 lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:425 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:425 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:33368 (32.5 KiB) TX bytes:33368 (32.5 KiB) usb0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr fa:f5:7a:37:17:9a inet addr:172.20.23.XXX Bcast:172.20.23.255 Mask:255.255.255.252 inet6 addr: fe80::f8f5:7aff:fe37:179a/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:3056 errors:30 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:30 TX packets:3988 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:1983935 (1.8 MiB) TX bytes:675978 (660.1 KiB)

A 56k connection? I think you'd need to get a wireless router/modem that accepts 56k. This unit will do that:

There may be cheaper ones out there. Google: 56k wireless router.

Are you saying that you want to share your modem connection with local computers via WiFi?

by phone i mean smartphone (android htc eris) 3g network
it's tethered to my computer via usb0
this is what i'm aiming for:
computer b (wlan0) -> router (eth0) -> computer a (usb0) -> phone -> internet
computer a uses net.usb0 to connect to the internet through the phone
i want to pipe this connection to the router via eth0
the router then would broadcast the signal and computer b would connect to the router via wlan0

Here is everything I've tried:
/etc/conf.d/net:
iptables:Code:config_usb0=( "dhcp" ) config_eth0=( "192.168.1.2/24" )
router (linksys wrt120n):Code:iptables -F iptables -t nat -F iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT iptables -P FORWARD DROP export LAN=eth0 export WAN=usb0 iptables -I INPUT 1 -i ${LAN} -j ACCEPT iptables -I INPUT 1 -i lo -j ACCEPT iptables -A INPUT -p UDP --dport bootps ! -i ${LAN} -j REJECT iptables -A INPUT -p UDP --dport domain ! -i ${LAN} -j REJECT iptables -A INPUT -p TCP --dport ssh -i ${WAN} -j ACCEPT iptables -A INPUT -p TCP ! -i ${LAN} -d 0/0 --dport 0:1023 -j DROP iptables -A INPUT -p UDP ! -i ${LAN} -d 0/0 --dport 0:1023 -j DROP iptables -I FORWARD -i ${LAN} -d 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0 -j DROP iptables -A FORWARD -i ${LAN} -s 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0 -j ACCEPT iptables -A FORWARD -i ${WAN} -d 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0 -j ACCEPT iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o ${WAN} -j MASQUERADE /etc/init.d/iptables save
starting services:Code:Internet Connection Type [] DHCP [x] Static IP [] PPPoE [] PPPTP [] L2TP [] Telstra Cable Internet IP Address: 192.168.1.1 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway: 192.168.1.2 DNS: 208.67.222.222 Local IP Address: 192.168.1.1 DHCP Server [x] enabled Start Address: 192.168.1.100 Max 50 Users Range: 192.168.1.100 - 149 Routing Table: Dest IP Subnet Mask Gateway Interface 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.2 WAN(Internet) 208.67.222.222 255.255.255.255 192.168.1.2 WAN(Internet) 192.168.1.2 255.255.255.255 192.168.1.1 WAN(Internet) 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.1 LAN & Wireless 127.0.0.1 255.255.255.255 127.0.0.1 Loopback
still, computer B can't access the internet and the "web" light on the router is not litCode:/etc/init.d/iptables start /etc/init.d/net.usb0 start /etc/init.d/net.eth0 start
this leads me to believe i'm not using iptables correctly (or incorrect router settings)
i'm pretty sure the router is capable of this, since i've used it as a network switch in the past (internet -> router a -> router b -> LAN)

Sorry to take so long to get back to you. What I do is to set up the phone into a WiFi hotspot mode instead of teathering it. That way, up to 5 devices/computers can access the internet using the phone as a WiFi access point and bypass the router altogether. You can set up the computer it is teathered to as a router, but in that case you probably need to reconfigure your regular router so that it routes gateway packets to the tethered system.

i found using the wireless tethering heated up the battery and drained it extremely fast. i ended up wired tethering to the computer, ip masquerading using it as a router, broadcasting the signal via wlan0 ad hoc mode

Glad you seem to have resolved your problems. The Android phones are flexible little buggers, aren't they?

BTW, I think you can connect the phone to your computer USB port (without activating tethering or data mode - just charge mode), and still use it as a WiFi hotspot. The USB connection will keep it charged.
