Can an USB Port support 2 MB/s Lan?



Answer:
it should i think
YES, USB 1.1 runs to 11Mb
Usb 2 runs to 480Mb
(nominal speeds)
and I assume you mean 2Mb LAN (mega bit not mega Byte)
here are the usb standards
Actually it can transfer at a much higher rate.

QOUTE=

4. How fast is USB 2.0?

USB 2.0 has a raw data rate at 480Mbps, and it is rated 40 times faster than its predecessor interface, USB 1.1, which tops at 12Mbps. Originally, USB 2.0 was intended to go only as fast as 240Mbps, but in October 1999, USB 2.0 Promoter Group pumped up the speed to 480Mbps.

As far as we know, effective rate reaches at 40MBps or 320Mbps for bulk transfer on a USB 2.0 hard drive with no one else is sharing the bus. Flash Drives seem to be catching up too with the some hitting 30MB/s milestone. For all we know, manufacturers may claim USB interface becoming the performance bottleneck for flash drives as early as 2007.
