Vespa, I did use a regular straight through cable first, then used crossover just in case. Connection to router works fine as well (cable modem wifi router, connected to a LAN port with wifi disabled, got internet when DHCP enabled). Did this on 2 Windows and 1 Mac laptop.

I may end up going the USB route, but trying to figure out if I have other issues that will prevent me from doing this regardless of interface method. Shouldn't be having this problem with a 2010 CIC (Original, not retrofit).
