Root How to get the WIRED Tethering app to work

I just can't seem to get it working! I'm running Mik3d w/goldenmonkey and no matter what I do, it just doesn't want to start running. I need a wired tethering option with 4g compatibility and I feel like it's my only option, help!

here try these out:Downloads - android-wired-tether - Wired Tether for Root Users - Google Project Hosting

i found them in this guide:

I have mik3d b1 on golden monkey on 3g, kicked me off on 4g.

In settings/ wireless and networks, after plugging in usb cable and dismissing the page to disk drive or charge. I have option to click usb tethering. I think there was something in mobile network on that page to use phone to connect when wifi not available, I'll check again. I am sending this via that set up right now.

It is sort of slow. By the way, i am not running any apps to do this. i plugged it in, after clicking as above, win7 picked up i was on a network and asked what kind, i clicked on home and gave it permission, and here we are.

I'm on a mac, tried that approach earlier and it did recognize the phone's internet, but it gave me an error message and said that there was a problem with the connection :(

Have you looked in to any of the aosp roms, like cm7/tiamat sbc for this?
Have you ever tried just plain old, EasyTether?

I'm a newbie and new to the whole rom game, I'm pretty comfortable with the feel of the stock-type software and I'm still a little too afraid go aosp just yet. I don't think that easytether does 4g, from what I've read, PDAnet speedtests come back way faster than Easytether. Honestly, I just want to find the fastest wired tethering option possible, and preferably, one that "auto recognizes" so that I don't have to enable it everytime I plug it in, that would be SUPREME!
