Actually it was in January.  Here is a link to the thread:

At the time, I suggested buying USB<->Ethernet dongles if the poster
really needed the physical connection to the machine to be USB.  This
was assuming that the two systems were full Linux systems on which
USB<->Ethernet driver software could be installed.   No idea if
Jerry's systems can do this or not.
