Has anyone been able to adjust the iPad 3's ttl to 65 in a persistent manner and not have to manually change it through mobile terminal after every reboot?

I found this script (see attachment) with the following instructions:

unzip the attached. Place com.scott.TTLmod.plist into /Library/LaunchDaemons on the iPad. Make sure ownership is root:wheel and permissions are 644. Place TTLmod.sh into /var/mobile/Scripts. Make sure permissions are 775. Might have to create the Scripts folder.

Reboot and running

sysctl net.inet.ip.ttl

should return 65.

. . . and have not been able to successfully implement it. My iPad still returns a ttl value of 64 after reboot. I am using iExplorer 3, with afc2add from cydia installed on my iPad, to access the files by root. I am not sure how I would check the mentioned permissions associated with the script installation to see if they are correct.


Can anyone assist me in using terminal to check/change the necessary permissions?


Is it possible that these instructions are for the installation only by use of mobile terminal?


Any help, thoughts or other ways to achieve a persistent ttl adjustment to 65 on the iPad would be greatly appreciated.🙂
