And one day we might even get units with sensible functionality (IP6 would be nice), but then I've also heard that people are working on Porcine aviation ;-) Even professional grade equipment has limits - only yesterday at work I had to provide throttling in our Linux router because a professional Juniper router would lose it's VPN connection if it's throttling was turned on. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
