Hello, I have a mobile phone, a Ubuntu BQ which works really nice as any kind of Linux box, SSH access etc. (not like this Android crap). At the moment I'm using my BQ as a router to the Internet as described here: https://gurucubano.gitbooks.io/bq-aquaris-e-4-5-ubuntu-phone/content/chapter4.html i.e. via USB and tethering: FreeBSD-netbook ---(USB tethering)---> BQ ---(data mobile) ---> Internet I'd like to get rid of the USB cable and I'm thinking about the following: My FreeBSD C720 netbook acts as an AP, the BQ connects, but all the routing and DNS is scripted the way that the traffic from the netbook goes over Wifi to the BQ and from this to Internet; I investigated the option and technical it seems to work once changed routing etc. in the BQ; Any comments?
