CONFIG_USB_CDCETHER
This driver supports devices conforming to the Communication Device
Class Ethernet Control Model. This is used in some cable modems.
For more details on the specification, get the Communication Device
Class specification from <http://www.usb.org/>.
This driver should work with the following devices:
* Ericsson PipeRider (all variants)
* Motorola (DM100 and SB4100)
* Broadcom Cable Modem (reference design)
* Toshiba PCX1100U and possibly other cable modems
The device creates a network device (ethX, where X depends on what
other networking devices you have in use), as for a normal PCI
or ISA based ethernet network card.
This code is also available as a module ( = code which can be
inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you want).
The module will be called CDCEther.o. If you want to compile it as
a module, say M here and read <file:Documentation/modules.txt>.

I am not sure if the SB4100e is the same as the SB4100 (quite possibly not),
and there have been some stability problems reported with this driver, but it
is probably worth a try to upgrade to the latest stable kernel.
