I am attempting to use the wireless capability of my Asus Memo Pad HD 7 ME173x tablet as an access point for my Ubuntu PC over USB. I installed USB Tether on both my tablet and my computer. I activate the program on the tablet and it seems to work fine. But running the program on my computer, it keeps repeating Checking phone status..., and I can't seem to get a connection.
I found the site http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1941773 and followed the steps. So indeed, I installed libssl-dev and ran ./configure, make and sudo ./run.sh. Unfortunately, USB Tether still keeps repeating Checking phone status....
