SSH Tunnel isnt redirecting Wifi tether data #171

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Install sshtunnel
2.Set up and turn on wifi sharing ( Built in or 3rd party ) 
3.Connect laptop or other device to Wifi Tether

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Wifi tethered device should tunnel all data via SSHTunnel. Instead of getting 
my servers IP address on the laptop when using " what is my IP " , Im getting 
Tmobiles IP address on the laptop instead. The phones browser does show the 
servers IP address though.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Latest

Please provide any additional information below.

Device : t889 T-mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 2. Tested with stock rooted, and 
custom rooted firmwares ( Notably Jedi Rom Series ) . All local programs on the 
Note 2 will tunnel properly but the sshtunnel isnt grabbing the data running 
over the wifi tether app. 

Thanks!

including stock.

Same issue with an older AT&T ZTE Z990 Avail, custom ROM, rooted.

ALL WiFi tether apps have this same issue:
Either no connection at all, or it shows the carriers IP, not the ssh servers 
IP.
Same result whether I start the tunnel first, then the WiFi Tether app, or the 
WiFi Tether, then the Tunnel.

Basically, WiFi Tehther is not using the Tunnel proxy.

What if you tether before starting the tunnel? It may be that they are each 
re-writing the IP tables, and the last one to do so should be the tunnel to get 
the correct routing.

Unfortunately it yields the same results. What I havent tried , but will 
shortly , is start a tethering session before the data is actually connected. 
Its odd though that all other apps are tunneling properly. So far the only work 
around Ive found, is to use SSHtunnel on the client connecting to the phone ( 
also an android device ), or use SSH directly on the desktop. Its a shame we 
cant grab all packets on the phone and redirect them. It would certainly be 
more secure if on a public Wifi connection as well as keep the carriers prying 
eyes out of our data.

I might just have to set up a VPN vs using my already in place ssh server :(  

Also, if it were working correctly, we would be able to connect PS3 / XBOX / or 
any other device directly to the phone. Certainly an added bonus.

Agreed, it should definitely work that way. I'm guessing that the tethering app 
is the only one working because it's the only other one that re-writes IP 
tables, but that's just a guess.
Has anyone tried this with the new beta version? I assume it probably does the 
same thing =(

Manually configuring the proxy on the laptop seems to resolve this.  My phone 
(GT-i9300 SGS3 International running CM10.2) is getting an ip address (for 
tethering) of 172.16.11.254, so i set the proxy to that address, use the local 
port listed in SSH Tunnel, and now traffic from the laptop is correctly 
displaying as coming from the remote proxy.  Still troubleshooting this on my 
PS3, though (which is the entire point, since t-mobile is blocking everything 
except my linux laptop, with or without the proxy).
