Hi all,

just wanted to share with the Gobo users one of the ways to connect a
computer to a local Wifi wireless network, or by using and Android
smartphone as a 3G modem.

- Start by connecting your Android phone to the network, you can use
either WiFi or a 3G connection.

- Connect the USB cable from your Android to the computer.

- In the Android System Settings, activate the option to make it a
Hotspot by the USB.

- In your Gobo applications, run in Terminology:

ip link  (will show your connections, there will be a USB0 or similar)

sudo dhcpcd usb0 (will connect to the Android and get an IP address)

- and that it! :)
