I'd like an adapter that would let me take a USB broadband modem, plug it into the adapter that plugs into the ethernet and have Linux initialize the datacomm stack on the USB modem. (i.e. be able to dial out primarily). I don't care about sharing the USB device, and distance could be minimal. I'm assuming the IOGear device can't handle the broadcast modem functions? Tx.
