Ethernet over USB Network Interface

<< < (2/2)

drgeoff:
One of us has a basic misunderstanding. My thinking is that the USB host device having a Linux kernel which has an ethernet over USB driver is not sufficient to guarantee that a USB slave device has a compatible 'driver'.

If all cellular/Wi-Fi/Wimax/LTE etc USB dongles had a standardised software interface for IP over USB it would not be necessary for the manufacturers to provide their own Windows drivers. That they do prompts me to think that those dongles do not implement a standardised ethernet over USB interface. Hence the answer from SteveInWA seems valid to me.
