This is part of the comments for the usbnet.c source code from 2.4.19-pre10: * - AnchorChip 2720 * - Belkin, eTEK (interops with Win32 drivers) * - GeneSys GL620USB-A * - "Linux Devices" (like iPaq and similar SA-1100 based PDAs) * - NetChip 1080 (interoperates with NetChip Win32 drivers) * - Prolific PL-2301/2302 (replaces "plusb" driver) So you may not have interoperability on anything except those specifically identified. Certainly my PL2302 cable software looked like it wanted to be a file exchanger, not a IP connection, as Freeze pointed out. Brad -- http://conf.linux.org.au. 22-25Jan2003. Perth, Australia.
