The easiest way to set up the connection with the Openmoko is to create a new connection (called Openmoko here) in the wired networks tab of the computer network manager. For this new connection, choose a static (manual) IP address: '''192.168.0.200'''.

When the operating system is installed and running, the configuration steps required in order to share the internet connectivity of the computer with the Neo FreeRunner via the USB cable are the followings. These steps must be done on the computer connected to the Neo FreeRunner.

\begin{enumerate}
 
-
\item On the computer, edit the file \texttt{/etc/sysctl.conf}
 
-
\begin{lstlisting}
 
-
$ gedit /etc/sysctl.conf
 
-
\end{lstlisting}
 
-
\item Look for the following line in this file:
+
1) On the computer, edit the file '''/etc/sysctl.conf'''
-
\begin{lstlisting}
+
-
#net.ipv4.conf.default.forwarding=1
+
-
\end{lstlisting}
+
-
and uncomment it (remove the \# character if not already done).% This change will be effective at the next reboot of the computer.
+
$ gedit /etc/sysctl.conf
-
%\item The following command can be use to make the previous change effective directly:
+
2) Look for the following line in this file:
-
%\begin{lstlisting}
+
-
%$ sudo sysctl -w net.ipv4.conf.default.forwarding = 1
+
-
%\end{lstlisting}
+
-
\item The iptables of the computer must be configured such that the computer behaves as a simple router for the Openmoko. The computer must forward packets coming from the Neo FreeRunner to the internet and the other way around. Edit the file \texttt{/etc/rc.local}:
+
#net.ipv4.conf.default.forwarding=1
-
\begin{lstlisting}
+
and uncomment it (remove the \# character if not already done).
-
$ gedit /etc/rc.local

and add these lines at the end of the file:

3) The iptables of the computer must be configured such that the computer behaves as a simple router for the Openmoko. The computer must forward packets coming from the Neo FreeRunner to the internet and the other way around. Edit the file '''/etc/rc.local''':
-
\begin{lstlisting}
+
$ gedit /etc/rc.local
-
/sbin/iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT
+
-
/sbin/iptables --table nat -A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.0.202/32 -o iface -j MASQUERADE
+
-
\end{lstlisting}
+
-
where iface corresponds to the interface of the computer connected to the internet (wlan0, eth0, eth1, ...). %These changes also take effect only after a reboot. To make them effective directly, type the same command in a terminal by replacing \textbf{/sbin/} by \textbf{sudo}.

and add these lines at the end of the file:
-
\item The computer have now to be rebooted.

The internet connection of the computer is now shared with the Neo FreeRunner. In order to check if the sharing of the internet connection is well configured, from the Neo FreeRunner, perform a \texttt{ping} to \texttt{www.google.com} and the results should look like this:
+
/sbin/iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT
 +
/sbin/iptables --table nat -A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.0.202/32 -o iface -j MASQUERADE
-
\begin{lstlisting}

where iface corresponds to the interface of the computer connected to the internet (wlan0, eth0, eth1, ...).
