Using a proxy to avoid tether throttling

Using a proxy to avoid tether throttling

I use used to use my mobile phone for internet access. My provider's Unlimited data plan discouragesd tethering (using the phone as a hotspot), though, by throttling traffic it sees coming from other devices.

A fairly simple and robust solution is was to run a proxy server on the phone, and then set up the router to send all traffic through the proxy.
