I was wondering whether it would be possible to perform reverse tethering on Firefox OS. I tried the instructions here, and they didn't seem to work.
Would anyone like to give it a try and report back?

Which platform are you on? If you are on the Mac you may need to use a different driver.
From https://wiki.mozilla.org/B2G/QA/Tips_And_Tricks:- Android Tethering might not necessarily work with Mac due to missing drivers. A resolution for this is HoRNDIS:

On Linux. Specifically OpenSUSE 13.2.

I'm not sure. I'm guessing it might be a driver issue.
Having said that, is there any thing in any of the logs that might give you a direction to work with?

Not sure what to look out for to be honest. Though I found another guide which
mentions toggling usb0, which I do not see in my networks.
