ugen0 is a generic USB device, not a NIC.  Perhaps you want to load the ura=
l=20
device.  Try kldload ural and see if you get a new network device (ural0).=
=20
Since the NIC is being detected as ugen you might need to have the ural=20
device load before the ugen device (or remove ugen from your kernel config,=
=20
if you don't need it).
