You're right. But I think, calling ifconfig multiple times doesn't hurt though.


The reason I want to access my device via bluetooth is our restricted wifi at my work place. There, I can access the internet, but I cannot access my computer due to security policies. Sure, I can use the USB cable, but I often forget it at home.

It's nice to be able to access files on the phone via sftp without touching it by leaving it in the bag.
