What happened?

I'm running Ubuntu 22.04
When running sudo ./linux_connection_share.sh {USB IFACE} {NETWORK IFACE}, I usually get the following output:

Error: ipv4: Address already assigned.

Turns out the line

ip addr add "$USB_IFACE_IP/24" dev "$USB_IFACE"

Is the problem.

Due to the fact that the IP is already assigned, the entire script fails.

But, if we were to change it to something like

ip addr add "$USB_IFACE_IP/24" dev "$USB_IFACE" || echo "Continueing..."

that command would not do anything, but the rest would work flawlessly.

This is a one line change and works quite well IMHO
