ISTR that mine crashed very easily if the USB power fluctuated. If you're going to use it off of a laptop or certain desktop systems, it probably best to connect it through a powered USB hub.
There are also more fun things than trying to get pppoa working and firmware uploads are irritatingly slow when you just lost network ;-)
Heh! Thanks, Mark. I'll check how reliable the usb is on the server it is intended for.
