136 This driver supports several kinds of network links over USB,
137 with "minidrivers" built around a common network driver core
138 that supports deep queues for efficient transfers. (This gives
139 better performance with small packets and at high speeds).
140
141 The USB host runs "usbnet", and the other end of the link might be:
142
143 - Another USB host, when using USB "network" or "data transfer"
144 cables. These are often used to network laptops to PCs, like
145 "Laplink" parallel cables or some motherboards. These rely
146 on specialized chips from many suppliers.
147
148 - An intelligent USB gadget, perhaps embedding a Linux system.
149 These include PDAs running Linux (iPaq, Yopy, Zaurus, and
150 others), and devices that interoperate using the standard
151 CDC-Ethernet specification (including many cable modems).
152
153 - Network adapter hardware (like those for 10/100 Ethernet) which
154 uses this driver framework.
155
156 The link will appear with a name like "usb0", when the link is
157 a two-node link, or "eth0" for most CDC-Ethernet devices. Those
158 two-node links are most easily managed with Ethernet Bridging
159 (CONFIG_BRIDGE) instead of routing.

605 called VL600. This driver only handles the ethernet
606 interface exposed by the modem firmware. To establish a connection
607 you will first need a userspace program that sends the right
608 command to the modem through its CDC ACM port, and most
609 likely also a DHCP client. See this thread about using the
610 4G modem from Verizon:
