Hi,
I bought my first tablet (android) and since it features only Wifi and bluetooth network, I figured why not using my spare USB dongle to use my tower (openSUSE 12.2 with cable Ethernet connection) as a WIFI router.
I've finally manage to get my TP-link USB wifi working (TL-WN821N with proprio atheros driver). The only difficulty was that I first forgot the IW packet. :?
Now I've no idea on how to configure a gateway so my tablet can access internet through my computer. I've tried some online tutorial with Yast or Networkmanager but :
A: Both solution requires that I put my WIFI on *intern zone* within my firewall, and I don't feel well about that, because wifi is fairly easy to crack (although I could filter mac adress).
B: I did not manage to "create" a WIFI setup (my tablet don't pick my own network, but still manage to see neighbor's 300m away).
C: Since I don't have internet on my tablet, I cannot use Android apps and the default network manager is : "choose your network and set a password."
I wouldn't mind a console command or script, but I would prefer a GUI solution since that is the way I've configured all my network so far.
Thank for your help.
