As of now none of the Linaro-Android builds support the tethering feature.(11.10 release )
Tethering feature enables sharing of device's internet connection over BT/WiFi/USB.
(Bluetooth, WiFi and USB tethering are supported at Android level in Gingerbread.)

WLAN (AR6003, HW2.0) doesn't support tethering from the hardware side. To implement tethering, WLAN device needs the functionality such SoftAP, which must be supported by both WLAN firmware and WLAN hardware. This is not available in Origen hardware.

In addition to that, I think Bluetooth technology doesn't support tethering solution.
