As far as I can remember, the blueyonder Instant Support Tool states that blueyonder "does not support home networking".
Also, back in the day where the engineers actually used to install everything for you, they'd always install the modem on the USB connection, even though that meant putting on all the crappy drivers first. Personally I prefer Ethernet over USB anyday, but I have a home network and my router doesn't have a USB WAN port, like I'm sure no others do
