Todo:
Install (internet from ethernet/phone network adapter bridging ((dhcp from phone and ICS are same, must bridge)))
/\ /\ /\ Above is a major problem. If I use ICS from phone to computer, and ICS from computer to router, both ICS networks uses the same IPs and it does not work. I briefly tried bridging the USB Network connection from the phone and the ethernet port to see if the phone would hand off more than 1 IP, but no luck yet. There may have been another problem. I'll work on this more when it's warm.
