Up to and including the SA V+, the Ethernet port is connected to the internal cable modem and is designed for providing a broadband connection without the need for a standalone modem. However, the speeds aren't up to current standards, so this hasn't been offered to new customers for years.

On the newer boxes (Samsung V+, V-HD and TiVo) the Ethernet port is connected to the TV processor, and is designed for sharing content between boxes within the home. I doubt this will ever be offered on the V+, but it's very possible on the TiVo.

The USB port doesn't have a specific use in mind, but we usually add it 'just in case'.
