You can run TCP/IP over anything, even carrier pigeon. All depends on what you are actually trying to do :)
You need a driver that presents the right device type to userspace. If your modem complies with CDC ACM class, then run PPP over the usb serial device. If it looks like CDC Ethernet, run TCP/IP over the usb ethernet device. What does your satellite tx/rx device look like, from a USB interface view? Brad -- http://conf.linux.org.au. 22-25Jan2003.
