USB broken in 2.4.4? Serial Ricochet works, USB performance sucks.

I recently got a ricochet 128k GS wireless modem and I am running it with
kernel 2.4.4 and ppp 2.4.1.

Using the USB connection (configured to operatate at 460kbit) I get up to
2kbyte per second. With serial(at 115kbit) this goes up to 8kbyte per
second.

Why is this?

(Note to all prospective Ricochet/Earthlink buyers: Beware. It takes 10-20
successful connects before you can establish a connection that lets data
through. Tested on multiple OSe and my ricochet repeater is across the
street on a lamp).
