Tony, that plug doesn't fit into the ethernet socket. Mine doesn't, anyway -- at least, not without application of significant force.
Mine seemed to fit fine at first. I don't remember forcing it unduly. Although I didn't notice it at the time, it went in slightly twisted, at an angle, and didn't go in all the way. Then, when I couldn't get a USB icon in emplode, I checked the usb plug to make sure it was plugged in. I pushed it into the socket to make sure it was connected, still not realizing it was the wrong hole. Only after the third check did I realize my mistake. Yes, I am a moron.
The only reason this happened is because I was busy setting up another server PC at my desk. Normally I plug the ethernet cable into the empeg first. This time, I was temporarily borrowing the empeg's ethernet cable for this other PC, so I "skipped" the ethernet cable in the plug-in-order.
