I recently dual booted into ubuntu because my Windows os is very slow to multitask. Surprisingly, when I tested most of my workspace in ubuntu, it can handle them very well than windows did (basically alt tabbing in windows took ages alongside the not responding message).
Now I planned to change my main os to linux but I ran into trouble when I wanted to do the unlimited hotspot trick on linux. I've been using this trick since forever because it actually works in Windows where I nearly used 20gb of data on the laptop where it left my hotspot quota still unscathed.
Basically what I typed in the command line in Windows is:
netsh int ipv4 set glob defaultcurhoplimit=65
netsh int ipv6 set glob defaultcurhoplimit=65It doesn't work on linux but I already did some research:
sudo sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.hop_limit=65
sudo sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_default_ttl=65I have tested playing some videos on youtube and finding that my quota is being used so clearly this is not working. I don't really want to invest in home wifi but take advantage that this trick exist.
Has anyone done this trick or make this trick works in Linux?
