How to enable USB android tethering on OS X Mountain Lion without using Easy-Tether (Lite) I can tether fine to Windows 7, but on my Mac OS X Mountain Lion, it does not recognize the USB network.  I can install Easy-Tether (Lite) but that comes with some restrictions (e.g. no secure web pages, so no gmail), so I'd like to use the built in tethering of Cyanogenmod 7 that I have on my Android phone.

Is there anyway to fix the Mac OS X Mountain Lion install so that it properly recognizes the USB network connection?
I'm guessing this isn't your preference, but the paid version of Easy Tether comes with the appropriate Mac OS X kernel extensions - so you could just pay the one time fee (currently $10) to have this feature programmed by someone who has done the work.

I'm fine with you not selecting this answer, but wanted it here for others that might need a solution that gets around the restrictions in the Lite version of the tethering software.
