I just connected a Linksys Ethernet&HomePNA adapter to my machine and
I got this message:
aue0 at uhub1 port 2
aue0: LINKSYS Inc. LINKSYS USB Adapter, rev 1.10/1.01, addr 7

So it seems that this adapter has three different PHYs.  Is this something
I have to worry about when I configure the interface, or will it just work
by some magic?
Also, I guess that one of these messages is wrong since one of the PHYs
should be a HomePNA PHY.
