Brilliant, thank you at lot.

This is addressed in my comment above made on February the 12th, 09.

I will add this in the post, so no one else gets stuck on this.

Great tutorial, thanks a lot Dimitar. I have one question, in step 4 after I hit save and apply it just sits there and doesn’t move. I unplugged it and plug it back in; well my router went to crap so I re-flash it. Is there any thing i missing or need to do?

Thank You,
Reboot

So i change the ip settings on the Fon to use the 0 network, then i click “apply changes on the router”, i let it sit for half an hour and still nothing happens, i unplug it (some ppl say that breaks it but im not so sure). i plug it back in, and it appears to be working (lights are blinking normally etc). I plug the eth from the fon to my computer, then i change the eth0 int to use the 0 network. I then type 192.168.0.250 in a browser (what the Fon should be)i can connect to it, but i cant get the web interface. this is driving me nuts. maybe something is wrong with my configuration or should i do a hardware reset of the Fon.

That sentence refers to Step 3 in the tutorial.

The DHCP server runs on the Ubuntu PC. Then in Step 4 you configure the Fon router to get IP addresses from the DHCP server on your Ubuntu PC.

could you please clearefy for me where do you run the dhcp server?
Is in on the FON or on the UBUNTU PC.
I cant get it from the contex.

I asume it does not matter where you run it as long as the gateway the clients get is my laptop connection to the internet( correct me if I am wrong here)

If you’re interested in doing that, follow this tutorial (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Upside-Down-TernetHowTo) except for the networking setup.

For that, kill firestarter because we’re using iptables straight up. Just save the following code as “iptables.conf”, use iptables-restore < /wherever/you/saved/iptables.conf to set up your firewall and you should be good to go.

*nat
-A POSTROUTING -j MASQUERADE
-A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp -m tcp –dport 80 -j REDIRECT –to-ports 3128
-A PREROUTING -p all -d 192.168.0.1 -j DNAT –to-destination 192.168.1.1
COMMIT

*filter
:OUTBOUND – [0:0]
-A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -m state –state ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -p all -s 127.0.0.1 -d 127.0.0.1 -j ACCEPT
COMMIT

I’m totally new at this, and it was a great learning experience. For those who are troubleshooting (like I was), here’s a few tips that helped me:

1. If you can’t access the Fon from the static IP in step 4, you’re not SOL. Just unplug it, add a host in GADMIN-DHCPD with the MAC address of the Fon and 192.168.0.250 and you’re good to go.

2. If you don’t have the web interface, you don’t need it. Just ssh into the Fon, and type “uci show” to see all the settings and “uci set =” to set them. If you really want the web interface, use Darren’s Tutorial (link at the top of this page) and use the opkg tool instead of ipkg to install it.

3. I couldn’t get the ICS working in Firestarter. I found an easy way around it by adding “routers: 192.168.0.1, domain-name servers: 192.168.1.1, and broadcast address: 192.168.0.255″ to GADMIN-DHCPD in the “Client Settings” section.

I hope those help you if you’re stuck and if not, make sure you did all the above steps in the guide correctly and check out the Hak5 forums. There’s a whole forum dedicated to the Jasager. Thanks again for this great guide!
