I did the normal setup but without the persistent backdoor but for some reason it wont show up as a Ethernet device on my mac but it does on my PC.
Run tail -f /var/log/syslog while starting up PoisonTap on macOS and paste what occurs please.
As in run it on the Mac or on the Pi?
On the mac
It says "tail: /var/log/syslog: No such file or directory". If you meant system.log it doesnt say anything at all when I plug it in.
Ah, sorry, meant system.log. Weird. Plug PoisonTap in, wait about three minutes, then run and paste the output of (from the mac): /usr/sbin/system_profiler SPUSBDataType

Well, the RNDIS/Ethernet Gadget is there. What do you see in the system Network preferences?
Very strange. Are you a user that has the ability to become admin?
I have two accounts on my laptop, both are admin.
Apple didn't include drivers for RNDIS in mac.
So it will show up as connected device but mac doesn't know that it is a ethernet adapter.
