I'm not used to give istruction ready to go, I like to give some suggestion to put the other users in the way and let them to refine the instructions with a bit of googling.
BTW.
Install the power kernel and boot with it (search the forum an or the wiki)
Install iptables
#2 unload any g_nokia and g_file_storage file modules eventually present
rmmod g_nokia
rmmod g_file_storage
#2 load the module g_ether (and install the related driver in windows, read usb_networking howto to know where the driver can be downloaded )
modprobe g_ether
#3 bring up and configure the usb0 network adapter
ifconfig usb0 up
ifconfig usb0 192.168.9.1
<--- (that ip is just an example)
If you want to share the 3g connection you ave also
to
#4 enable the ip forwarding
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
#5 set the iptables roule[s]
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o gprs0 -j MASQUERADE
#6a configure statically the ip/gw/dns on the pc side
Following the given example configure manually the rndis lan on windows as follows
ip 192.168.9.2
gw 192.168.9.1
dns (any working dns eg 4.2.2.2)
#6b or (better) configure dnsmasq on the n900 to act as DHCP/DNS server.
sometyng like that on the n900's terminal
dnsmasq -I lo -z -a 192.168.9.1 -F 192.168.9.2,192.168.9.50
Now you can browse the internet from your pc.
You may want also to use the opposite way: share the the landline connection to your n900, this is already explained in the message 6
