So this is Windows and Apple's fault.. Windows = CDC ECM = needs signed driver.. Apple = RNDIS = needs signed driver... Windows will use the RNDIS with a built-in driver, thus user doesn't have to install anything... Apple will use the CDC ECM with a built-in driver, thus user doesn't have to install anything... So in linux, we end with two interfaces, because Windows and Apple don't have a unified built-in driver...
