You should not need an adaptor. The Highway box has an integral USB TA. I
have SuSE 8.1 and can connect via a USB cable; although my default route is
via ethernet and a switch/router box.
The USB TA uses: /lib/modules/2.4.19-4GB/kernel/drivers/isdn/hisax/hisax_st5481.o
I also look after other machines that is use AVM FRitz pci cards supplied by
BT. They were autodetected by (I think it was) SuSE 7.0 and work fine.

I picked up a Netopia R3100-SP ISDN router on ebay for £25. There are bargains to be
had from ISDN customers now covered by DSL/cable. If you are interested in more speed
then you probably want something that will give the full 128K rather than just using
the single 64K channel and that means finding a reasonable 128K ISP which is no mean
feat if you have anything more than minimal usage. Unmetered 128K has only been
available since the middle of last year and the main players are all struggling a
little between contention (and remember this is contention for a port not for
bandwidth so there are times when you will be unable to connect), maximum usage (200
hrs/month is about the max) and cutoffs (2 to 4 hrs). Prices vary by package from as
low as £5 (the wee small hours only) to over £50 for anytime with a reasonable
package. Personally I just gave up and got an uncontended line from Demon (it is
being activated tomorrow). Not cheap though. Finally, if you are a gamer then you
probably want to avoid the USB socket, I believe it can easily add in excess of 10ms
to pings (which incidentally are probably worse on 128K than 64K).
