-Description: Enable tethering via USB networking and Bluetooth PAN
- mtetherd allows you to use your N900 as an Internet router.
- Once a USB network or Bluetooth PAN connection is opened to the device,
- it will automatically configure networking and start a dnsmasq instance
- that serves DHCP requests and forwards DNS queries.
- You can also use it to automatically configure network interfaces
- for development.
+Description: Enable tethering via USB and Bluetooth
+ mtetherd allows you to use your N900 as an Internet gateway.

+ routing will be set up automatically through DHCP.

- IP addresses are now assigned in a more dynamic way.
- 192.168.255.0/24 is reserved for all network interfaces,
- each of which gets a /30. The first network device will thus receive
- the following configuration:
- IP: 192.168.255.1
+ IP addressing:
+ Each network interface gets a /30 IP range from 192.168.255.0/24.
+ The first device will be configured as follows:
+ N900: 192.168.255.1
  Netmask: 255.255.255.252
- DHCP address of partner: 192.168.255.2
+ Address assigned through DHCP: 192.168.255.2
+ The second device gets 192.168.255.5, and so on.
