Override AOSP device network attributes for ConnectivityManager
frameworks/base/core/res/res/values/config.xml
<!-- This string array should be overridden by the device to present a list of network
attributes. This is used by the connectivity manager to decide which networks can coexist
based on the hardware -->
<!-- An Array of "[Connection name],[ConnectivityManager.TYPE_xxxx],
[associated radio-type],[priority],[restoral-timer(ms)],[dependencyMet] -->
<!-- the 5th element "resore-time" indicates the number of milliseconds to delay
before automatically restore the default connection. Set -1 if the connection

nc port forward examples
Will work once:
nc -l 0.0.0.0 6127
nc -l 6126 | nc 0.0.0.0 6127
wget http://0.0.0.0:6126
First 'nc -l' should hit.
