sant527 commented 6 years ago

I am using this to do reverse tethering. I installed the apk on my android and after connecting my android phone by USB i ran ./gnirehtet run. And now i am able to acces internet on my android.

But i have a server running on the localhost on my laptop. I can access it using 127.0.0.1:8000 from browser on laptop. How to access it on my android mobile. Which ip i have to use

The mapping is hardcoded: 10.0.2.2.

sant527 commented 6 years ago

its very flickering. sometimes it shows no progress

rom1v commented 6 years ago

Could you give more details?

sant527 commented 6 years ago

I think there is some problem with the port:

I try 10.0.2.2 it opens my localhost

but if I localhost running on 8000 port then 10.0.2.2:8000 is not loading.

It shows blank when i open in chrome

i am using django server

./manage.py runserver 10.0.0.2:8000

Your server must listen on localhost (127.0.0.1), and your client must access it through 10.0.2.2.

I think there is some problem with the port

I can't reproduce.

I started a simple http server on the computer listening on 127.0.0.1:8000:

python3 -m http.server --bind 127.0.0.1 8000

And I access http://10.0.2.2:8000/ from the device, it works as expected.

thats true. I think django is having some problem. I running a localserver on Django. Also i have localhost running on my apache server, that also hangs.

The below is the result of opening 127.0.0.1:8000 on my laptop browser

$ ./manage.py runserver 127.0.0.1:8000 Performing system checks...

whereas the following is when i open in my android browser:

$ ./manage.py runserver 127.0.0.1:8000 Performing system checks...

So many things are not loading. it gets stuck.
