Agreed the long pole at a small site for DNS won't be the USB bus.  Might I 
recommend the following:

odroid-c1 + eMMC module + RTC battery + case + power adapter.  Should run you 
about $75 *AND*
wouldn't be bad for running NTP as well.

The gig-e port on the C1 has been observed to push 405Mbps TX and 940Mbps+ RX 
via iperf.
