The USB-USB networking is available in the lastest 2.4 kernel (2.4.18).
You need to build a new kernel with the feature in by selecting
experimental in 'Code Maturity Options' from make menuconfig.
This will make 'USB-USB Networking cable device support' appear
in the USB section.

Your USB port then becomes usable as /dev/eth1.

Of course, this by itself doesn't give you firewalling/masquerading 
capability
that makes your internal LAN undetectable by RR.  But it does give you
2 network ports (one internal & one external).

Then it's a matter of installing iptables and using MonMotha's scripts
to do masquerading. See:
