103 | This driver supports several kinds of network links over USB, | |
104 | with "minidrivers" built around a common network driver core | |
105 | that supports deep queues for efficient transfers. (This gives | |
106 | better performance with small packets and at high speeds). | |
090ffa9d | 107 | |
1da177e4 LT |
108 | The USB host runs "usbnet", and the other end of the link might be: |
109 | ||
110 | - Another USB host, when using USB "network" or "data transfer" | |
111 | cables. These are often used to network laptops to PCs, like | |
112 | "Laplink" parallel cables or some motherboards. These rely | |
113 | on specialized chips from many suppliers. | |
114 | ||
115 | - An intelligent USB gadget, perhaps embedding a Linux system. | |
116 | These include PDAs running Linux (iPaq, Yopy, Zaurus, and | |
117 | others), and devices that interoperate using the standard | |
118 | CDC-Ethernet specification (including many cable modems). | |
119 | ||
120 | - Network adapter hardware (like those for 10/100 Ethernet) which | |
121 | uses this driver framework. | |
122 | ||
123 | The link will appear with a name like "usb0", when the link is | |
124 | a two-node link, or "eth0" for most CDC-Ethernet devices. Those | |
125 | two-node links are most easily managed with Ethernet Bridging | |
126 | (CONFIG_BRIDGE) instead of routing. | |

472 | depends on USB_NET_CDCETHER | |
473 | select USB_ACM | |
474 | help | |
475 | Select this if you want to use an LG Electronics 4G/LTE usb modem | |
476 | called VL600. This driver only handles the ethernet | |
477 | interface exposed by the modem firmware. To establish a connection | |
478 | you will first need a userspace program that sends the right | |
479 | command to the modem through its CDC ACM port, and most | |
480 | likely also a DHCP client. See this thread about using the | |
481 | 4G modem from Verizon: | |
