 Ditto on USB tethering no longer working in mako. My phone sat unused for several months until I got the digitizer replaced, but I'm sure USB tethering worked in OTA-10ish. Is it worth filing a bug report for this? I didn't find a recent one in launchpad.

I hope mako hasn't been abandoned or relegated to the junk drawer. We Americans don't have any other choice for a 3G phone w/ Ubuntu Touch.

Yep, the option is hidden on mako as it's unreliable and unlikely to
function properly. I think the focus has moved away from mako at this
point, so it is unlikely to ever work.

I believe this is supposed to work. But, I had the same problem as you
when I tried it a few weeks ago.--
