My notes say the following: Connect phone with USB cable. Pull down notifications: Tap USB, Tap again for other uses, Tap USB tethering. On the computer, ifupdown is installed (the debian-installer default). Root wrote this file: $ cat /etc/network/interfaces.d/tethered allow-hotplug usb0 iface usb0 inet dhcp $ # ifup usb0 $ ip r default via 192.168.50.93 dev usb0 192.168.50.0/24 dev usb0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.50.231 $ When finished: # ifdown usb0 On the phone, deselect USB tethering button. (This may require selecting something else, like Charging Only.) Remove cable. (Leave ifupdown and interfaces.d/tethered.) Cheers, David.
