Hi all,

I tried to use tethering recently, through both MobileHotspot and bluetooth PAN, but I'm having some issues with the networking settings. Previously it worked fine, but I haven't tried since PR1.1 and I'm now using PR1.3, so there's been a fair few software/OS updates since I last tried.

Basically, I can connect a network between PC and phone through either ad-hoc WLAN or bluetooth PAN, but as soon as I connect my GPRS connection as well, the phone becomes unreachable from the PC.

It goes something like this:

• I connect the PC-phone network (either bluetooth or start MobileHotspot) with manual IP assigned at both ends, and PC gateway/DNS set to phone
• PC & phone are connected, GPRS is not yet connected
• I can ping and ssh from phone to PC, and from PC to phone
• I then connect to GPRS connection
• Phone can ping PC, but PC cannot ping phone.

I've tried echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ip_forward, but it makes no difference. Are there any other network settings that might have this effect?

I'm using power-kernel 2.6.28-maemo46.
