Hi,

Good points. 

The Radio works. I am using it.
The IPCop Ethernet port also works (I can have it work in a test)

There indeed is a small extra cable that my ISP uses to change a non-crossover 
into a crossover cable. I had always used that (in the last 4 years I used the 
connection), but now I am running the connection without it. (so the radio is 
not plugged directly into our linksys and that works)

Just to understand: what is that green light for anyways? (yup, noob question)
