Whonix + android x86 Enviroment help needed

Yeah, baby! Finally, I’ve found a solution how to run Android x86 Workstation with Whonix-Gateway WITHOUT DHCP on a Gateway side needed!

So, the steps are the following:

  1. Disable Wi-Fi from Android “Settings - Network & Internet” menu
  2. Open Terminal Emulator and type “ip a”. Interface wlan0 should be DOWN
  3. Do the steps described in Anonymize Other Operating Systems and accept them to wlan0 interface (not wlan_eth)
  4. Enable Wi-Fi from Android Settings menu. Now Wi-Fi will be connected but DNS won’t work.
  5. Go “Network & Internet” - “Wi-Fi” and hold VirtWifi network. Tap “Modify Network” and change IP Settings from DHCP to Static and type: IP Address - 10.152.152.12, Gateway - 10.152.152.10, Network prefix length - 18, DNS 1 - 10.152.152.10. And press save. Now restart Wi-Fi and it WILL WORK FINE!

IT WORKS EVEN AFTER REBOOT ANDROID X86 WOW!
So I’ve solved the problem which have not been solved during 7!!! years! Tested on Android x86 Oreo
