cant tether samsung gs7 (android) to 16.04.1 - Ask Ubuntu


brand new install of 16.04.1 desktop 32-bit. turning on tethering on handset produces no additional connection in network manager. dmesg -w output includes lines

rndis_host 1-2:1.0 eth0: register 'rndis_host' @ usb-0000:00:1d.7-1, rndis device, 00:00:00:00:00:00 rndis_host 1-2:1.0 enp0s29f7u1: renamed eth0 ipv6: addrconf(netdev_up): enp0s29f7u1: link not ready 

i got same problem. , see there no answers although question 2 months old. possibly you're still waiting solution. realized internet routes not ok. default route missing. can check "route -n". if there no route 0.0.0.0, got error. can add default route command "sudo route add default gw xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx". can required ip address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx command ifconfig. inet address , change number of last group 1. example: 192.168.1.49 192.168.1.1. tried network manager, failed. need add dns server. should best done network manager. right click on connection , add 8.8.8.8 dns server or other server like. assume bug in either samsung phone or ubuntu. more or less workaround.
