I am trying too to use my Kobo Glo Hd as a usbnet network device (KSM 9, Windows 10) to have it ready in case of need, but probably something went wrong.

What I have done till now:
1.I have downloaded and extracted the kindle_rndis.inf_amd64-v1.0.0.1 zip file.
2.I have right-clicked "5-runasadmin_register-CA-cer.cmd" and run it as administrator.
3.In Device Manager, expanding "Ports (COM & LPT)", didn't show any "Serial USB device (COM3)" as per instructions, but "Port something" which I now don't remember. I have right clicked that anyway and installed the driver from the kindle_rndis.inf_amd64 folder.
4.Now if I enable the usbnet in KSM with usbnet toggle I can see, in the Device manager, a new network card "Kindle USB RNDIS Device (USBNetwork enabled)". I have right-clicked that, gone to properties, and tried to write the network address there to 192.168.2.100 but the field is one digit short.
Do I have to go to Network and Sharing Center> Change adapter settings> Properties and then TCP_IPv4/Properties? (what about subnet mask? dns?)

Also, I have noted that in Device Manager I can't see anymore "Ports (COM & LPT)". If I select "show hidden devices" I do see "Ports (COM & LPT)" but with only two greyed out devices referring to Samsung stuff. Did I mess something up in Windows?

Thank you in advance for your help
