He notes the bi-modal distribution of speeds — one peak represents slow tourists taking their time, and another peak for those traveling between Marin and San Francisco.

There's absolutely no need for all this trouble. I just lost a couple of hours trying to follow your instructions. All you need to do is go to "Network Connections", end edit your wired connection. Under the "IPv4 Settings" tab, just change the Method to "Shared to other computers". Information found at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing/ Aaargh!

How about Ubuntu actually doing its job and getting the appropriate files into the system & network manager so that it works? When was the last time Ubuntu was updated to handle T-Mobile's new plans and devices? Don't bother talking to T-Mobile - once you get someone you can understand, you quickly find out that they don't know anything and "don't support Linux". No matter what I do, it DOES NOT WORK.
