Not sure. Most of this linux stuff is above my head so I'm just trying different things following the steps best I can. The tablet is connected but isn't getting an internet connection & has no IP. One of the posters here somehow got it to work with his xoom but it's confusing to follow.

I considered wifi tethering, but n900 only does adhoc & Honeycomb tablets don't even see those networks w/o some workaround. Why did google have to make this so difficult?
