Hi Adrian.

This sounds really odd. Most likely it's an issue with the USB network 
interface.
What are the errors you are getting? Something to try would be changing 
the LAN network interface in the admin interface, then rebooting to make 
sure all changes are applied properly. After making the changes it can 
take up to 10 minutes for them to be applied, so a reboot is a good idea.

If you have a linux machine you can test with (or if you know the 
windows commands), and should also work with a mac, just show the 
results of "dig www.google.it" and "dig www.google.com" to see the 
differences over wlan and usb, as well as a domain that works and a 
domain that doesn't.

Hope that makes sense.

Tim
