129 ---help---
130 This driver supports several kinds of network links over USB,
131 with "minidrivers" built around a common network driver core
132 that supports deep queues for efficient transfers. (This gives
133 better performance with small packets and at high speeds).
134
135 The USB host runs "usbnet", and the other end of the link might be:
136
137 - Another USB host, when using USB "network" or "data transfer"
138 cables. These are often used to network laptops to PCs, like
139 "Laplink" parallel cables or some motherboards. These rely
140 on specialized chips from many suppliers.
141
142 - An intelligent USB gadget, perhaps embedding a Linux system.
143 These include PDAs running Linux (iPaq, Yopy, Zaurus, and
144 others), and devices that interoperate using the standard
145 CDC-Ethernet specification (including many cable modems).
146
147 - Network adapter hardware (like those for 10/100 Ethernet) which
148 uses this driver framework.
149
150 The link will appear with a name like "usb0", when the link is
151 a two-node link, or "eth0" for most CDC-Ethernet devices. Those
152 two-node links are most easily managed with Ethernet Bridging
153 (CONFIG_BRIDGE) instead of routing.

125 This driver supports several kinds of network links over USB,
126 with "minidrivers" built around a common network driver core
127 that supports deep queues for efficient transfers. (This gives
128 better performance with small packets and at high speeds).
129
130 The USB host runs "usbnet", and the other end of the link might be:
131
132 - Another USB host, when using USB "network" or "data transfer"
133 cables. These are often used to network laptops to PCs, like
134 "Laplink" parallel cables or some motherboards. These rely
135 on specialized chips from many suppliers.
136
137 - An intelligent USB gadget, perhaps embedding a Linux system.
138 These include PDAs running Linux (iPaq, Yopy, Zaurus, and
139 others), and devices that interoperate using the standard
140 CDC-Ethernet specification (including many cable modems).
141
142 - Network adapter hardware (like those for 10/100 Ethernet) which
143 uses this driver framework.
144
145 The link will appear with a name like "usb0", when the link is
146 a two-node link, or "eth0" for most CDC-Ethernet devices. Those
147 two-node links are most easily managed with Ethernet Bridging
148 (CONFIG_BRIDGE) instead of routing.

589 Select this if you want to use an LG Electronics 4G/LTE usb modem
590 called VL600. This driver only handles the ethernet
591 interface exposed by the modem firmware. To establish a connection
592 you will first need a userspace program that sends the right
593 command to the modem through its CDC ACM port, and most
594 likely also a DHCP client. See this thread about using the
595 4G modem from Verizon:
