USB device with Ethernet Adapters



Hi,
  Could anybody give me an some insight how the whole USB model sits when a
device which can behave like a USB-Ethernet adapter, as I notice for a lot
of the devices which I work with that the standard Apple drivers seems to
work with them (apart from 1 or minor issues usually sleep and dual
processor sometimes). I see this if I use the USBProber and then see an
Ethernet adapter appear in the network list.

  I understand that USB devices usually work in USB families and a driver
usually then offers specific functionality which the standard USB driver
doesn't offer - I think that's how it works if memory servers me right.

  So it makes me wonder why, I sometimes have specific drivers for
particular broadband modems ?, could anybody explain why ?, or maybe my
understanding is wrong about USB families.

Thanks
Mark.
