If it doesn’t have those particular modules, that functionality has probably been moved into other modules.

Wish it could help me though, since the latest version in trunk is missing the modules kmod-usb-net-cdc-ether & kmod-usb-net-rndis. And I need the trunk version for other options added since last release :(

You can solve that problem by installing udev and usbutils packages… read more about it here: https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?pid=146384

This makes a great backup uplink for the times cable/dsl are down.

Anyone want to take a shot at how to enable hotplugging the usb0 interface with udev rules? i’m failing miserably.

This is such a great idea.
I am wondering, why nobody else is intersted in this topic! I am using a Netgear WNR3500L but I did not yet find a firmware.
