Verify that all traffic is tunneled? #10

I was able to get this all set up and it appears to be working, but speed tests run on my computer (tethered to the phone's hotspot) are still sitting at right around 5mbps (this is the cap on Visible's hotspot), where speed tests run on the phone itself are much higher.

I'm wondering if there is anyway to verify that this is working. Typically I could check the IP but with it tunneling inside the LAN I'm not sure what to do

Thanks for taking the time. I've tried this with no luck.

It does connect but still no data usage showing up under termux. Feel like I'm going crazy.

this is the command I'm running: sshuttle -r $TERMUX_USER@$TERMUX_IP:$TERMUX_PORT -x $TERMUX_IP 0/0 -e 'ssh -i id_rsa'

if you have vpn running on your phone you can check the tunneled traffic, for instace I have wireguard set on my phone (phone has $server_IP) and my pc connected via hotspot (showing $carrier_IP) when I tunnel on pc

sshuttle u0_a163@10.0.0.2:8022 --exclude 10.0.0.2 0/0

and check my pc's ip, it now shows wireguard $server_IP

Hope the testing make sense, I'll update once I test the cap

edit: it does make data via hotspot as mobile's but it's pointless in my case as my provider doesn't distinguish between mobile data vs hotspot /o\

Were you able to figure it out? I was able to verify that my trafic was NOT tunneling by checking "what is my IP address" on google search. The address that came back was different on my phone compared to my mac. If it was tunneling it would be the same as the termux.
