But when I unplug the USB cable I start to have problems.

This is a known issue in current releases of Mac OS X (Radar ID 2606181). The implementation of IOEthernetController/DLIL do not correctly work together to disentangle the Ethernet device's ifnet structure from the BSD parts of the system. Thus unplugging an Ethernet device causes no end of problems further down the line.

I know a number of other developers have hit this problem, some of whom have worked the issue through with DTS. However, I didn't take those incidents so I'm not intimately familiar with the problem, nor do I know any details as to a possible workaround. I will do some more digging.
