Does anyone know if it is possible to use Galaxy Note 2 as a wired modem?

I know about wifi tethering and I don't want that.

I know about PDAnet type wares that allow usb tethering to a PC. I don't want that either.

I would like to convert the the usb tethering output of the the Note 2 into Ethernet and be able to plug it into any wireless router.

OR

Maybe there is someway to use a wireless router (DD-WRT based) with a usb port that could be configured as wan that would accept usb tethering from Note 2?

Any suggestions are appreciated.

I dont think this would be possible unless you somehow rigged a cable to go from your phone usb on one end to a ethernet port on the other that could transfer internet without a third part program I have a dual band router with a usb port but it seem to only work for like hdds or printers

Maybe I'm missing something, but why not just use the mobile Hotspot to connect to.

Is there a reason it has to be a wired connection? If you must have to have it connected to a router couldn't you just set a router up with dd-wrt and have it set in repeater mode to rebroadcast the hotspot signal.
