Currently, devices that are supported by Maemo Leste will automatically set up USB networking if you plug them into a PC. Mass Storage may show as an option, but doesn't do anything useful yet.


Share PC network with Leste device

To also have the devices use your PC network, log into the devices:


ifconfig usb0 up 192.168.42.1
ssh root@192.168.42.2

And then add the following route:

ip route add default via 192.168.42.1

On your PC, issue:

# (Maybe only one of these two echos is necessary)
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/usb0/forwarding
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

iptables -A POSTROUTING -t nat -s 192.168.42.2/32 -j MASQUERADE

Now your Leste device should be able to use your PC network
