I have been using the R7800 with iPhone Tethering via WAN mode. Recently, I purchased a new R9000, but iPhone Tethering via WAN mode does not work.

After investigation, it appears the ipheth module is missing in the R9000. Here is the comparison:

R7800's lsmod:
Code:
root@R7800-2:~# lsmod | grep usbcore 
usbcore               149540  11 ipheth,usb_storage,xhci_plat_hcd,xhci_pci,xhci_hcd,ohci_hcd,ehci_pci,ehci_platform,ehci_hcd 
usb_common              2481   2 dwc3,usbcore 
nls_base                5416   3 ksmbd,usbcore,nls_utf8 


R9000's lsmod:
Code:
root@R9000:~# lsmod | grep usbcore 
usbcore               157710   9 usb_storage,xhci_plat_hcd,xhci_pci,xhci_hcd,ohci_hcd,ehci_pci,ehci_platform,ehci_hcd 
usb_common              2481   1 usbcore 
nls_base                5416   3 ksmbd,usbcore,nls_utf8 


The ipheth module is absent on the R9000. How can I fix this issue?

Thank you for your attention

— The R62036 version on 2025-08-08 is also missing ipheth.

Code:
BusyBox v1.37.0 (2025-08-08 05:46:25 +07) built-in shell (ash)

root@DD-WRT:~# lsmod | grep usbcore 
usbcore               206400  9 usb_storage,xhci_plat_hcd,xhci_pci,xhci_hcd,ohci_hcd,ehci_pci,ehci_platform,ehci_hcd 
usb_common              2496  1 usbcore 
nls_base                5184  1 usbcore 


I checked the /lib/modules/4.9.337/ directory, and there are no .ko files related to ipheth.
