A web search shows other recent purchasers in Lancaster (UK) and Seattle (USA). Just like an emergent virus, our age of e-commerce and airmail allows underdocumented hardware to spread around the world instantly using the vector of ridiculously low prices. Paige Thompson, infected via eBay, discovered that the HG20F9 is a copy of the Asix 88772B; many viruses copy the RNA of other viruses. See Paige's work at . This patch uses her discovery to update the restructured Asix driver in the current kernel. Just as some viruses inhabit seemingly-healthy cells, the HG20F9 uses the Vendor ID 0x066b assigned to Linksys Inc. For the present there is no clash of Product ID 0x20f9.
