Hi Rob, I have been testing their USG product for the past 3 months it is very developed box. (NSE is the software than runs on the USG which is being licensed to AP vendors) The java applet is only used for the customer interface - which allows the user to increase/decrease their bandwidth usage on the fly. The really cool thing is their DAT function - any machine can connect with any IP settings for example, if you take your notebook with the IP address 12.49.43.12, default gateway 1.1.1.1 name server 2.2.2.2 - without any configuration on the USG or the notebook it will work. The USG does not care. This is great in the consumer market where most of the problems are where the consumer has screwed up on their IP settings.
