I am faced with a strange problem(at least,strange to me).
I have a laptop(running Arch Linux), which does not have Bluetooth capability(let's call this device A). I also have another computer which has Bluetooth as its only means of communication(let's call this device B).
I need to access device B wirelessly using SSH. Now without anything else this would be impossible, but I happen to have the following resources at
my disposal -
i) A full featured (WiFi and Bluetooth) Android device
ii) A wireless home network
The option which I am keen to use ,and which seems to be the simplest, is to -
-Connect the phone and device A to the home network (using WiFi)
-Use Bluetooth tethering to tether device B to the phone
-Access device B over the home network from device A using SSH
However the problem here is that when I tether device B to the phone, even though the phone is on the home network, device B does not appear on the home network.
How can I make the tethered device B accessible from the 'parent' home network?
If this is not possible, is there any other way I can make my connection?
Any suggestions?
