thunderbolt has a different path to enable the rndis interface. This need to be
included in the apk.
path in TB is /sys/class/usb_composite/ether/enable

I'm having the same issue, my laptop sees the RNDIS device, but never obtains
an address. The "show logs" says everything is fine and started. I have root
on the phone and am willing to troubleshoot so if anyone needs a tester I'll
volunteer.

Would like to get this working on Thunderbolt also.
Haven't been able to get a definitive answer whether Verizon will be charging
us for using "internet connection mode" or not

I've played around a bit, and tried assigning usb0 (on Kubuntu) an ip address
in the same range as the phones IP I can not ping between devices, not sure if
that helps anyone but figured I'd post. I'll keep toying with it when I get
time.

I had a look in my phone and it seems that
/sys/class/usb_composite/ether/enable is already set to 1, even without
patching the source of android-wired-tether to enable it. So if this is the
magic sysfs flag we need to get this working, why isn't it already working? I'm
not sure what mechanism sets it; it may be something HTC does in their custom
software, or it may come that way by default in this kernel build or
sysctl.conf.
Still no luck at all getting any type of networking out of this solution. I can
get as far as setting up the link layer on Fedora 15 with the kernel's built-in
RNDIS, but as others have said, the IP layer seems completely borked. I'm not
sure what IP I should be setting my usb0 device to, or whether DHCP should be
available (it's not)... I'm at a loss. May try and dig through the various
components of this solution and see which one(s) are not working properly.

Just downloaded the latest beta of wireless tether, to get it to work I had to
enable "Routing fix" Enable Routing-fix (for HTC devices). Perhaps wired
tether needs this option as well?
Side note: I tried firing up wired tether while wireless was running just for
s&g but it still doesn't work. But I think the above routing fix is on to
something.

I'm really interested in having a version of wired-tether working on the
thunderbolt... so much that I would go so far as to donate to make it happen.
What's the likelihood that the fixes applied to wireless tether to make it
work, could get ported to wired-tether? How much would it take to make this
happen? Wireless tether is not for me.
Thanks,
Brian

I got this working with a rooted stock 1.70.605
Only thing I needed to do was to apply the ROM patch attached to post 37 of
Issue 24:
http://code.google.com/p/android-wired-tether/issues/detail?id=24#c37
This required converting the install script if you are using Clockworkmod 3+ -
I used the converter here:

I just tried this using the latest Gingerbread with no luck. :/

For those with Thunderbolts that want a usb tether solution, check out "easy
tether", it's $10 but it works with windows, linux, mac. Until this gets fixed
(if ever) I'll be using it. I can't hold out any longer.
