usb has two modes, "host", like your laptop, and "gadget" or "device" like your mouse or thumbdrive. when your tethering, your phone is acting like a device, a modem. laptops usually dont have usb that can act as a device, only a host. when the usb cable is a serial, you can connect two laptops that way. then the serial connectors are the device. if you have that, you can set up a ppp connection. may have given you more questions than answers in that. for your purpose, theres an easier way. > The purpose is to use Qubes as a dedicated Tor router, to take advantage of > the VT-D protection, but then to use a separate computer to do web browsing, > seeing as web browsers are so vulnerable, and I don't want Qubes to be hacked > due to a web browser flaw. > > All I want to run on Qubes is Whonix VM and some kind of Internet sharing > over USB. for this setup, it would make more sense to run whonix on its own hardware, maybe a raspberri pi, and plug your qubes laptop into that for browsing, using the whonix workstation or disposable vms. to really be careful, stick to whonix workstation and dont allow javascript from anywhere. thats where almost all browser vulnerabilities are. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
