[Bug 1413982] [NEW] Tethering via USB is an impossibly painful task
Public bug reported:
What I want to do is incredibly simple:
- I have my computer connected to eth1 which has internet access. This
works fine.
- I want to connect another network to usb0, not permanently - when I
need to use it, and use this for Internet access while remaining
connected to eth1 as there are resources I still want to access on that
network.
This appears to be impossible via the Network Manager applet. There is
no logical sense to the routes chosen at all and editing the routes is
even more of a mystery.
Still working on it, I'll update if I can figure out a way around this
disaster.
