IPhone USB Tethering Ubuntu

Tether via USB

   Tethering your iPhone via USB uses a iPhone Ethernet driver written by Diego Giagio. Paul McEnery has set up a PPA repository with the driver and it’s dependencies so there is no longer the need to compile both ‘libiphone’ and ‘ipheth’. The first step is to add the PPA repository to your Synaptic repositories. To do so, open a new Terminal window and execute the following command

    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:pmcenery/ppa
    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get install gvfs ipheth-utils
