Yes lots of problems with USB (ADSL users have these as well) the drivers have to create a virtual network card lots of conflicts are possible and significant CPU/ system resource overhead.

Suggest you persuade them to go the Ethernet route, its easy to add a router and after registration new PCs with XP (for example) really do just plug in and go.
