#18109: Orbot with Transparent Proxying breaks Hotspot DHCP
------------------------+----------------------------------------
Reporter: cyphar | Owner: n8fr8
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: Medium | Milestone:
Component: Orbot | Version: Tor: 0.2.7.5
Severity: Major | Keywords: orbot android dhcp hotspot

------------------------+----------------------------------------
I'm using the current version of Orbot (15.1.0-RC-2) and CyanogenMod 12.1.
If you enable transparent proxying of all apps ("tor everything"), along
with enabling a WiFi hotspot from your phone, any clients attempting to
connect to your phone's hotspot will be unable to get a DHCP lease. It
seems it might be involved with the iptables rules that Orbot sets up.
Enabling the option "Tor tethering" doesn't appear to make a difference
either. Connecting to the network and then enabling Orbot will cause DNS
to stop working.
This means that I cannot effectively both have all of my apps Tor-ified on
my phone and also have a wifi-hotspot open for my laptop (even if I'm not
trying to tor-ify my laptop's internet).
