How to solve usb tethering not working in opensuse tumbleweed?

[arone]

I try to install tumbleweed kde plasma on my hp victus laptop with amd ryzen cpu.
tumbleweed not loading the usb tethering by default
(i tried nobara,fedora,kde neon ,debian,cachy, kubuntu ,garuda etc) all works perfectly for usb tethering . but not on tumbleweed

it seems like i installed the lan driver but usb tethering (using mobile data)
still not working

wireless connectivity is good , no problem at all
i do not have any wired network to test whether wired driver works or not.

shall i install any additional driver ?
or change any settings?

why this not work for opensuse ?
i am also using windows in another ssd
not dual boot 2 different ssds one for windows one for linux

All the help are welcome.

Maybe this is interesting:

Tethering via USB doesn't works

Just installed and updated Tumbleweed. Connected my mobile, enabled tethering in phone but network icon doesn’t change and internet isn’t available. With same hardware (phone and pc) using hotspot (wifi) all works fine.

thaks for your replay

so opensuse removes RNDIS drivers from kernal because of security concerns

so i only need to install the driver by looking the default kernel ?

or manually type and tweak the codes according to my specifications?

All you need is opening a terminal and issuing:

sudo touch /etc/modprobe.d/50-blacklist-rndis.conf

or, if you want to be more selective,

sudo cp /usr/lib/modprobe.d/50-blacklist-rndis.conf /etc/modprobe.d/50-blacklist-rndis.conf

then comment out the last line in /etc/modprobe.d/50-blacklist-rndis.conf so that it reads:

blacklist rndis_wlan
blacklist usb_f_rndis
# blacklist rndis_host

If you just need it once in a while, you may also issue:

sudo modprobe rndis_host

only when you need tethering.

sudo touch /etc/modprobe.d/50-blacklist-rndis.conf

kwrite

then

SUDO_EDITOR=kwrite sudoedit /etc/modprobe.d/50-blacklist-rndis.conf

@arone

only need to activate it right?

On next reboot it should be effective. Just

modprobe rndis_host

to load it before reboot.

Why would you need that? rndis is a microsoft protocoll and probably a security issue. As an alternative (ok, I only use phones with an i) you can switch on a personal hotspot, which will then offer a WiFi access, secured by a password. You can connect to this wifi with your notebook and will be online.
