[Verizon] Ethernet Adapter

Does anyone know how to use an ethernet adapter with the Verizon Galaxy Nexus?

The phone is rooted, running stock 4.2.2.

I have a USB OTG cable and a Linksys USB300M USB ethernet adapter. When I connect them to the phone the Linksys light activates and is powered off of the phone but I can't get ethernet connectivity.

Is there a way to get this to work? Can I do it with a custom ROM? Custom kernel? Is there a driver or something I can install?

I am trying to use an IP camera app on the phone to put a video stream on a network using an ethernet connection to the network switch. I can do it when I'm connected to the network via wifi and now I want to test this capability.

Thanks.
