Re: How to get tether to work - ooseven - 04-21-2014
I have the tethering on data on wifi off no signal to run firefox.
I must be missing some thing?
I just sent Blu Dash an e-mail on this. When I turn it off FF
flickers. So I'm close. I contacted my carrier and they said
not them. So waiting for ol Blu

Hello!
Super duper! Hope I SOMEHOW 'pointed you in the right direction'.
I'll file that one away for future reference. I've never needed to do that to get tethering going, but might need to one day.
Mine defaulted to 'Use system proxy settings', so it COULD be something in the way your system proxy settings were set up when LL was installed...

Yep hope it helps other people, may have been what was wrong when trying to
do that before with her phone.
By the way, what does LL mean?

Now I know and I do not blame you
Re: How to get tether to work (solved) - ooseven - 04-26-2014
Just an update, I installed LL with my cell phone.
Seen it right off. Did not have to change anything
in FF to run the browser.
So I take it that if one installs LL from wired one may
have to modify the FF setting?
Off I go to let my 14 yr old son drive the back roads
to my sister to get her off windoz.
