I have tried multiple ways I got on Google, without luck.
BlueMan based apporaches will NOT work because my Pi does NOT have X running. I would like to solve this just using BlueZ and some simple scripts if necessary.
My Raspberry Pi runs Raspbian. My BlueZ is version 4.99. hcid.conf
is NOT found in /etc/bluetooth
. pand
has been installed but I cannot see any new interface related to Bluetooth added to ifconfig
results.
My idea is that, I should be able to create a virtual interface into ifconfig
results, and manage it with a static IP address defined in /etc/network/interfaces
. Then I can run normal IP forwarding etc. I am not sure if this is the correct way of doing this, but so far I cannot find anything new in results of ifconfig
.
A lot of articles I found use bridge. I'd prefer NAT if possible. Because I don't think bridges work for Wi-Fi interfaces. I already have a Wi-Fi to Wi-Fi forwarding NAT configured on this Pi, therefore, once I can connect a device to a virtual interface on Pi, the rest should be trivial, I think.
