Hey everyone,

I am wondering about the route command on n900 and if I can make it direct Joikuspot traffic through tap0 created by openvpn. That is, I want to make the n900 act as an openvpn wifi router. Any ideas how it can be done? I can't say I use the route command much but there should be an easy way to do it, right?

the way things are now, I find that running openvpn breaks the joikuspot wifi internet (wifi continues to run though even with no internet access). Joikuspot runs fine onece openvpn on n900 is shut down. Any fix would be appreciated. In all cases, internet access is preserved on the phone browser itself but not the joikuspot.

I wrote a script for you. No Jokiuspot or MobileHotspot needed. Save it as a script and run it as root under xterminal or Queen Beecon Widget.

Code:
#!/bin/sh
# Original script by Jebba, modified by 9000 @ talk.maemo.org
# Run this script to create WiFi hotspot over tap0
# Activate your tap0 (openvpn) connection first

set -x

start wlancond

# Load modules
modprobe crc7
modprobe mac80211
modprobe wl12xx
modprobe ipt_MASQUERADE

# flush old rules
iptables -F
iptables -t nat -F

iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o tap0 -j MASQUERADE

# forward IPs
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

# Setup DNS and DHCP
dnsmasq -I lo -z -a 192.168.1.1 -F 192.168.1.100,192.168.1.127

ifconfig wlan0 down
iwconfig wlan0 mode ad-hoc
ifconfig wlan0 up
iwconfig wlan0 essid openvpn
iwconfig wlan0 key s:YOURPASSWORD
iwconfig wlan0 channel 10
ifconfig wlan0 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up

run-standalone.sh dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=org.freedesktop.Notifications /org/freedesktop/Notifications org.freedesktop.Notifications.SystemNoteInfoprint string:'WiFi HotSpot Activated'
The ssid is openvpn and the passowrd is YOURPASSWORD. You can customize your own.
