Author: gavin Date: Mon Sep 29 18:04:35 2014 New Revision: 45698 URL: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/doc/45698 Log: Pad out the section on tethering, and clarify which device is likely to be needed for iPhones/iPads, Android devices, and older devices. Change the "kldload" examples to use "if_foo" rather than "foo" as only the former works on 9.x.
