I just jailbroke to 2.02 this morning using pwnage tool 2.0.3... I'm at the airport now trying to tether, which I've done without any hitches on previous firmware versions, but if it's not just me, it seems to me like apple has disabled tethering.

Once I've got everything up between the laptop and computer, I can browse the Internet for <1 min... The iPhone refused to keep the 3G connection as the default route for Internet connectivity, no matter what I try. It always reverts back to using wi-fi as the default route, which disables the laptops connection to the Internet.


I tried this both with ssh tunneling and netshare.

Anyone experiencing similar behavior?

hi wirru,

I've tried the same thing I didn't get so far first, I set up a peer to peer wifi to the iphone, created an ssh tunnel ran socks but it didn't want to work with the firefox on my (XP) corporate laptop.
I looked around and found this usb way to create a tunnel, unfortunately the page is currently down I believe http://www.ipodtouchfans.com/forums/...ad.php?t=93978
the tunnel tool is here: http://oss.coresecurity.com/projects/iphonedbg.html
If you are interested I can explain you, it's easy.
That way the iphone has no active wifi and routed correctly through 3g resp. edge. plus its being charged while you are online

I've tried to change the route manually before I find out how the automatic route change mechanisms exactly works but I only partially succeed. I deleted the default gateway to my peer to peer wireless, added a default gateway to the current 3g network but then, dns didn't work any more. I would enter 64.233.167.99 into the browser and google comes up, on the iphone safari it was only complaining that no internet would be available and no page was shown.

So I definitely want to dig into this topic deeper, I cannot believe that the iphone cannot act just as a normal router.
I want it to integrate in my home wireless network so it routes all data when my cable modem has no connection for example and in places without wifi I want it to connect to my laptop only and allow me to run my vpn to the company, that would be much cooler then these ssh tunnels, special browser config...

When you have news let me know, I'll keep diggin that when I have some time.

One important thing which I didn't consider so important but it might be, maybe I miss your point, I have 2.0.1 on my 3g phone. Did it work on your phone with 2.0.1 ?

Hmm... I don't remember exactly if it worked with 2.0.1 or not. I know that I never experienced this problem before until I upgraded to 2.0.2, but I can't recall whether or not I ever tried to tether with 2.0.1.

I'm away from home until tomorrow, but I'll do some more research on this when I get back and I'll post my findings

Is there really no one else who tethers who can add some input on this problem?

Yes I can't seem to get it to work either. I feel like I have tried everything. Initially I started with proxifier and iphone tunnel and I could get it to connect but the tunnel program would unexpectedly quit. I would be able to get online for a minute or so but it would always quit.

Then I tried to go another route with the iphone tunnel suite 2.0 . I would get into the phone with WinSCP and be able to see all of the files on the phone but could never get any internet? On the phone I still run SSH and terminal and type in the socks command. So not sure if I'm not doing it correctly on the phone side.

Very frustrating and I have put a ton of time into this and no one can seem to give me any suggestions.

My configuration is iphone 3g with 2.0.2 firm running windows XP pro on my PC.

Don't know what to try from here.

Any updates on this issue? Heading out of town for the week and would really like to have this working for the travel.

i'm able to tether with no problem on 2.0.2 firmware

Thanks for letting us know that but that doesn't really help those of us that are having trouble? Can you tell us some specifics about your configuration and what software you are running?

Also lost tethering in 2.02 was working fine before. Gonna try and restore later see if I can get it working . What did everyone jailbreak using. I used quickpwn could it be that?

knowone have any ideas? :s

dont know if this helps anyone to solve my problem, proxifier check is saying passed...

but there is no connectivity in firefox or ie.

any other users with this problem confirm if proxifier check works or not so i know if we have the same problem or if something else on my pc is screwed.
