If you have the choice ethernet much easier to install and configure.
And if you ever want to make a network, routers use Ethernet interfaces.
hi,
I had problem with Alcatel Speed Touch USB modem
because of insufficient power supply from the motherboard.
I do not think technically it can change much.
- With Linux, the USB modem is really hard to install!
- I have already read (but I know where) that a USB modem, it was an aberration technology.
If you have a choice: Ethernet
Why?
- Ethernet modems are supported by Linux without any problem, which is not the case of USB modems
- Ethernet modems allow natural sharing an Internet connection (without requiring a special side OS)
- USB modems take up bandwidth on the USB bus, which on some computers may cause problems
- USB modems are often self-powered by the USB bus, problems were noted on some computers (install a driver solves the problem)
- I read the manual for my cable modem that is both Ethernet / USB (that means get choice, not need to connect both )
