Support for this shouldn't really go into the cxacru driver, as that's
for an USB ATM interface (it depends on usbatm for actual ATM traffic)
not ethernet.

Unfortunately it doesn't look like a trivial task to auto-detect which
driver should handle it... your device itself claims to be an "ADSL
Modem".

You'd need to know what type of device it was before loading the
firmware, which would further complicate auto-detection as some custom
firmware may be required that attempts to probe the device and then
accepts new firmware. I have no way of testing this on all the types of
existing hardware: http://accessrunner.sourceforge.net/modems.shtml

Does it happen to work as an ADSL modem too if you load the right
firmware?

There should be some flash memory you could try reading, however it
may not contain anything useful.

See "commands for interaction with the flash memory" in cxacru.c and
http://simon.arlott.org/pub/cxacru/raw.c

One possibility is to rewrite the flash to indicate that it's an
ethernet class device, or just handle class 255 differently. It would
be interesting to know what the windows driver does when the device
class is changed. (I don't know which bytes in the flash memory
correspond to that value as mine are all 00, hopefully if you can read
yours you'll have an FF in that area.)

Ignoring 0572:cb01 class 255 in the cxacru probe function would be an
option... but I don't know how many existing users that would affect.


The three versions of the hardware I have are below:
