I mean on the laptop side
1. Plug neo into laptop
2. run dmesg on laptop
[ 9359.352059] usb 2-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2
[ 9359.566175] usb 2-2: configuration #1 chosen from 2 choices
[ 9359.914928] eth2: register 'cdc_ether' at usb-0000:00:1d.0-2, CDC Ethernet Device, 
00:1f:11:01:70:8f
[ 9359.915323] usbcore: registered new interface driver cdc_ether
[ 9359.962215] udev: renamed network interface eth2 to eth5
3. look for lines like the above which tell you that my neo is at eth5
