I am going to make you happy then. I am using an adhoc connection successfully on my nexus 7 and nokia 79. Download the ap-hotspot deb package here https://launchpad.net/~nilarimogard/+archive/webupd8/+sourcepub/3958646/+listing-archive-extra Before using dpkg to install the package make sure you have hostapd and dnsmasq installed on your system. They are found in the official debian repositories. Its very easy to use, "sudo ap-hotspot start" will start the script. The script will automatically identify your network source, be it usb or ethernet connection. And then you can use your laptop as a makeshift router. More info about the script can be found here. http://www.webupd8.org/2013/06/how-to-set-up-wireless-hotspot-access.html Working flawlessly here -- Regards, Anubhav Yadav Imperial College of Engineering and Research, Pune. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
