have you actually passed the usb ethernet interface to ipconfig? when
you leave the interface out ipcofig will just use the first ethernet
it finds on /net. it might have just configured your built in ethernet.

you do that like:

ip/ipconfig ether /net/etherUwhatever

if that doesnt work, start troubleshooting systematically:

figure out if usb ethernet works at all, run snoopy /net/etherUwhatever
and look if you see broadcast packets on the network. setup static
ip for that, so you can ping your host or send out pings and see if
both directions work.
