Abstract

Methods and apparatus are provided for configuring sharing of an Internet connection at first and second devices. A program for configuring the Internet connection is transmitted from the first device to a second device via a cable. The program is stored in the first device. Messages are exchanged between the first device and the second device, via the cable, for configuration of network interfaces of the first device and the second device, after the second device executes the program. Network interfaces of the first device and the second device are configured in accordance with the program and the messages exchanged between the first device and the second device. The Internet connection of at least one of the first device and the second device is shared based on the configured network interfaces.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to a method and apparatus for sharing an Internet connection, and more particularly to a method and apparatus for configuring a network interface for a predetermined device for sharing an Internet connection with another device. Background technique [0002] Generally, a mobile communication device can be connected to the Internet via a mobile communication network or a wireless local area network (LAN). However, an Internet connection via a mobile communication network generates a large amount of traffic in the mobile communication network. However, a wireless LAN can only be used at a location with an access point (AP). Furthermore, wireless LANs require users to perform complex network configurations in order to access Internet connections. Contents of the invention [0003] problem solution [0004] The present invention has been made to address at least the above-mentioned problems and / or disadvantages ...
