    Hm... vejam o que diz na documentação do kernel:

CONFIG_USB_USBNET:

This driver supports network links over USB with USB 
"Network"                                                     
or "data transfer" cables, often used to network laptops to 
PCs.                                                   
Such cables have chips from suppliers such as Belkin/eTEK, 
GeneSys                                                 
(GeneLink), NetChip and Prolific. Intelligent USB devices could 
also                                               
use this approach to provide Internet access, using standard 
USB                                                   
cabling. You can find these chips also on some motherboards 
with                                                   
USB PC2PC 
support.                                                                                                  

                                                                                                                   

These links will have names like "usb0", "usb1", etc.  They 
act                                                    
like two-node Ethernets, so you can use 802.1d Ethernet 
Bridging                                                   
(CONFIG_BRIDGE) to simplify your network 
routing.                                                                  
                                                                                                                   

This code is also available as a kernel module (code which can 
be                                                  
inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you 
want).                                                
The module will be called usbnet.o. If you want to compile it as 
a                                                 
module, say M here and read Documentation/modules.txt.
