no, if the phone tells you NAP, then this means that the iPhone acts as
Network Access Point. The computer connecting to the phone would be the
PANU. This patch is 100% correct.

I would actually go that far to remove the PANU check. Since a PANU is
not required to have a DHCP server running. It is suppose to use link
local addresses.
