Linux/Ubuntu:
I took steps up to 7 and when disi! spoke about windows I started to investigate myself. I did the following (maybe someone could tell me if I did some unnecesary steps!!):
sudo ifconfig usb0 192.168.2.2
You can check the result with:
lsusb | grep RNDIS
This should show something like:
Bus 008 Device 002: ID 0525:a4a2 Netchip Technology, Inc. Linux-USB Ethernet/RNDIS Gadget
Now you should be able to ping your kindle with:
ping 192.168.2.2
