[E3-hacking] Can you use a USB Ethernet Dongle on the E3

[David Given]

I think I had USB ethernet working using the custom Linux kernel (I wasn't
interested in using the stock firmware). It's only USB 1, though, and I
have very faint memories of it not liking hubs very much?

BTW, Nick: I just discovered a bunch of your messages in the Gmail spam
folder. It looks like you're using live.com --- there shouldn't be a
problem there, surely? Maybe it doesn't like your custom font?
