Hi, the Tab only got an IP address via the N900 when that ip_forward line was uncommented. Prior to that, pairing and 'connection' was completed but without an IP being provide. I used jschan's tethering script here: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=124 You can see here: # Enable IP forwarding #echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/$INTERFACE/forwarding echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/$EXTERNAL_INTERFACE/forwarding That it was commented out...
