I could only find one and it was a bit pricey.  Where did you get yours?

The OS and kickstart roms don't have native support for USB.  Someone
(can't remember who) wrote a USB stack called poseidon.  It comes with
the deneb board.  Other people still have written drivers for certain
USB ethernet adapter chipsets.  I had two of these lying around, but
I'm not sure if they're the right chipsets.  I haven't tried to make
it work yet, although it's on the agenda.

You can read about the deneb here.  Looks like it supports 3.x:

You can also read about some of Jens' hardware here (note the X-surf):

Although I don't see a link there for the indivision.  You can see that here:
