My bad, I probably didn't explain myself correctly.

I was talking about modifying TTL of the forwarded packets on the phone, to make the packets look like they were originated from the phone itself.

OK, yeah. I don't know how MyWi works; if it forwards everything by hand, then it can definitely do that. If not, yeah, it's dependent on what the kernel can do.
