On the N900
/etc/apt/sources.list deb http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel/ fremantle free apt-get install iptables http://wiki.maemo.org/Kernel_Power#I...el_from_extras apt-get install kernel-power-settings echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o wlan0 -j MASQUERADE iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o gprs0 -j MASQUERADE cat /etc/network/interfaces iface usb0 inet static address 192.168.3.15 netmask 255.255.255.0 ifup usb0

sudo ifconfig usb1 192.168.3.14 sudo route add default gw 192.168.3.15
For Non-Power Users On Windows
The Nokia PC Suite also provides this functionality for Windows users. Once it's set up, click on the green globe icon to get started - or you can just run "OneTouchAccess" from the PC Suite program files directory (C:\Program Files\Nokia\Nokia PC Suite 7\ by default on Windows XP)
