Hey all

do we support USB tethering?

like... at all?

antranigv: You mean plug a phone in the the USB port and use LTE for data?

(If that's what you're thinking we do not.)

danmcd that's actually what we did. and it worked fine

Oh wow... yeah, it'd probably present as a generic USB network/ethernet. My bad.

danmcd except in this case instead of a phone it was a "4G hotspot with USB + WiFi" provided by the ISP

I should blog about it, all it was just an Alcatel 4G

what I would like to see is a tiny box like that, where the WiFi is not used as a hotspot, but instead as a connector (it connects to other WiFi APs) and provides USB connection to Unix

that will solve all of my WiFi problems both on OpenIndiana and FreeBSD :P
