I know FreeBSD suppots (at least according to the guide) usb tether, but
some devices when connected via USB are visible as a network interface and
this allows file sharing among other things!

I have a Blackberry 10 device and I'm wondering if this is somehow possible
or if not how hard would it be?

On linux the device is recognize by usbnet driver (
http://www.linux-usb.org/usbnet/) is there anything like this in freebsd?


More info about the device detection:
