Hello! 
First off I just want to say I am really enjoying Garuda. I'm running the KDE Dragonized Edition and it is stunning. So a huge thank you to the Garuda development community! I can't praise this distro enough.
So here is the issue and forgive me as it does need a little explanation. In the US our mobile carriers (Verizon, T-Mobile, AT&T etc.) limit our hotspot data. To be clear we are given unlimited data when it is used directly on the device (smartphone, tablet etc.) but when we turn on our hotspot to share that connection with other devices such as this laptop that I'm writing this post on, we are limited to a set amount of GB. Once that limit has been used our carriers throttle the hotspot connection to the point that it's basically useless.
With that foundation in place I'll now mention PdaNet. PdaNet is Windows software that not only allows you to tether your phones data connection to your laptop, but it hides the tethered usage from your carrier so there is no data cap and thus no throttling of the service whatsoever. This allows me to have unlimited data on my laptop using my phones internet connection.
So I am looking for an alternative to PdaNet. I have already gotten a successful connection with easy-tether but it doesn't hide the connection from my carrier and thus it throttles after my 30GB limit. I have read through the arch wiki concerning tethering, with limited success with the other solutions offered on that wiki, but I am aware of it. I've also tried to get PdaNet working on linux without success thus far. I have aslo read through a few threads entirely that I could find on this topic but was unable to find a solution.
All that being said I am ultimately asking for someone to point me in the right direction to either alternative software that can do what PdaNet does, or instructions as to how I might get PdaNet working on Linux. Thank you in advance for any help and again thank you for this distribution. It's awesome.
