Yes, it might be.  I'd assumed it was the same factor that caused linux to
present the FR as a different (sequential) USB device each time it's
plugged in, even 5 secs apart (no reboot or anything so usb0 MAC is
unchanged) but it's entirely possible that Windows is keying off the MAC,
I've not jacked my FR into any winbox frequently enough to have grasped a
pattern.  Will be testing this over the next day or two though, both as-is
and with static dev_addr.
