Mark,
There was a couple of problems with the Broadcom DSL modem that
required a vendor specific driver before changes were made in the
Apple driver to support it. The problems you mentioned have also been
fixed, in the Apple driver, but have not made it to a release yet.

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.
