Because all the useful networing tools in GNU/Linux are GNU tools, and not what's available in Android/Linux. Android/Linux uses its own version of the Linux kernelm and by and large doesn't support GNU userspace. I use Teksavvy because they don't hang up the phone when I tell them I use Linux. They still use Bell phone lines, but not Bell's network services. -- hendrik > On 3 October 2016 at 16:36, Nick Sklavenitis <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > > Not for anything but the days of dial up and modems are done too be honest > > getting on the internet 10 years ago with linux was not obvious i blame > > win-modems. > > > > So fast fwd 10 years in theory all bell videotron etc… do is offer a > > router/modem in your home.
