NAME

ipheth – USB Apple iPhone/iPad tethered Ethernet driver

CONTENTS

SYNOPSIS

if_ipheth_load="YES"

Alternatively, to compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your kernel configuration file: device uhci device ohci device usb device miibus device uether device ipheth

DESCRIPTION

The ipheth driver provides support for network access through Apple iPhone and iPad devices, often referred to as USB tethering.

ipheth should work with any Apple iPhone or iPad device. In most cases this must be explicitly enabled on the device first.

For more information on configuring this device, see ifconfig(8). The device does not support different media types or options.

HARDWARE

The following devices are supported by the ipheth driver:

SEE ALSO

arp(4), cdce(4), cdceem(4), intro(4), netintro(4), urndis(4), usb(4), ifconfig(8), usbconfig(8)

HISTORY

The ipheth device driver first appeared in FreeBSD 8.2 .

AUTHORS

The ipheth driver was written by Hans Petter Selasky <Mt hselasky@FreeBSD.org>.

BUGS

Some devices may need to be manually configured to use an alternative configuration with the usbconfig(8) utility. A command similar to

    usbconfig -u 1 -a 2 set_config 3

may be required if the device is not recognised automatically by ipheth after it is connected.
