I then unplugged both, removed /etc/network/interfaces, and rebooted. When I plugged in the PC Port, I got the following messages: [ 106.024038] usb 3-1: new full speed USB device number 2 using uhci_hcd [ 106.203038] usb 3-1: New USB device found, idVendor=1630, idProduct=0011 [ 106.203105] usb 3-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0[ 106.203163] usb 3-1: Product: 2Wire PC Port [ 106.203215] usb 3-1: Manufacturer: 2Wire Inc [ 106.312267] usbcore: registered new interface driver cdc_ether [ 106.346573] rndis_host 3-1:1.0: eth2: register 'rndis_host' at usb-0000:00:1d.1-1, RNDIS device (poll status before control), 00:d0:9e:3c:25:ed [ 106.347424] usbcore: registered new interface driver rndis_host [ 106.432669] cfg80211: Calling CRDA to update world regulatory domain [ 106.465011] usbcore: registered new interface driver rndis_wlan [ 106.556970] udev[327]: renamed network interface eth2 to eth4 I then created a new /etc/network/interfaces for eth4. Unfortunately, when I enteered "ifup eth4" I got the following messages: [ 170.280070] usb 3-1: USB disconnect, device number 2 [ 170.281850] rndis_host 3-1:1.0: eth4: unregister 'rndis_host' usb-0000:00:1d.1-1, RNDIS device (poll status before control) It looks like the kernel disconnected the device, so I couldn't configure it or bring it up.
