greektardis: The 192.168.x.y networks are typically /24 networks, i.e. subnet mask defaults to 255.255.255.0. This means that the full range 192.168.x.1 up to 192.168.x.254 (plus .255, IP broadcast, and technically, the .0 address also belongs to that range) constitute one logical network. You should probably use such a network only on a specific physical network (except where you create bridges, but let's leave that out for now). What that means for you is the following:
- if your LAN is 192.168.2.y (y=0 up to 255), your USB network can't be.
- and the other way around.

So even if you put all the devices on distinct adresses as you did, they are still on the same logical subnet - that won't work. The solution:

- switch your LAN over to a different subnet, e.g. 192.168.0.y - e.g. router on 192.168.0.1 and your PC (LAN interface) on 192.168.0.y (where y != 1)
- OR switch the USB network to a different subnet, i.e. the KDX (in USB network config) and on your PC (RNDIS interface).

One set of devices must leave the 192.168.2.y subnet. You can chose depending on what you find easier (e.g. there might be other devices on your LAN etc.pp.)
