    Mac to N800 USB networking question

    I've set up my Mac and N800 for USB networking by sort-of following the linux tutorial after finding no mac alternative. It worked quite well, the mac immediately picked up the N800 as a ethernet adapter and assigned itself the ip 192.168.2.14 and i was able to ssh into the N800 from the Mac.

    I was just wondering if it was possible to now allow the Mac to access the internet through the n800's wifi? According to the USB networking wiki article this is possible, but i've been unable to find out anything more. However I've noticed when the n800 is networked through USB, the wifi connection becomes unavailable to its applications?

    Edit: Would it be possible to use bridge-utils to create a a transparent bridge between wlan0 and usb0 as per this website? http://www.sorgonet.com/network/adva...lesswithlinux/
