Plus those instructions disable driver signing and malware protection in the mac which is generally under the realm of "bad idea" unless you are making a hackintosh. I really do not see the merit in the time and effort involved in trying to do this with a generic adapter. Since apple sells their own model for $29. Also there are certain requirements for what mac addresses are allowed and what ones are not allowed. It is possible that since you are using a non-apple approved driver, it may create the interface with a different name as a reference. It should be en0 unless you have a lot of ethernet interfaces. The interface name can be found with ifconfig. Your spoofing command looks correct (provided that your interface is en4) but there is no guarantee that what you are using for an interface or MAC address is valid. I think these are the worst invention ever created but just like there are software based modems and com ports there are software based network cards. It is likely that the mac address is a software programmable MAC address that is assigned by the driver at load. If the USB device does not have a specific MAC address on the outside of the device and it is a "cheap" adapter.
