Hi, I'm guessing you never heard back from Asus? Have you been in contact with madwifi.org to find out how donations best could be handled? There doesn't seem to be a way to donate money for a specific goal at http://madwifi.org/wiki/Donations Perhaps donations directly to Nick Kossifidis could be arranged? -- Cheers, Sven Arvidsson http://www.whiz.se PGP Key ID 760BDD22
