Internet access via phone.

When I use my pone as a hotspot, I have no problems connecting to the Internet from Windows, but can't get this working under FreeBSD.

Previously I was able to connect from FreeBSD via a broadband router, but simply changing the SSID and password did not work.

Do I need additional parameter when connecting via a phone.

I was able to see the SSID when doing a scan but no connection was established.

Alternatively I can connect using USB tethering and when running dhclient ue0 I get an IP address asigned.

What do I need to do after that?
 
I just tried it again on another computer and it works fine.

The problem was that I also had an ethernet connection and did know how the change the default route.
 
I've had it working in the past with an android phone both using the phone as a wifi hotspot and also via usb cable tether, they both worked, using DHCP..
