Hi Robert, I doubt that the tether option is enabled by default in my system. First I'm using the console image and I had to install connman manually. Second my goal is to have tethring enabled after boot, so if the image would already contain that option, no necessary actions from my side. But as described the USB stick doesn't seem to be active after boot, since its LED is off.
