The chip on the 411 is different than the one on the 433, the 433 has a switch chip built in. We could probably repair the 433/450 as well, but the chip to repair/replace is significantly more expensive. I have not seen as many issues with the 433's blowing, but we seem to blow about 10-20 411's a month out of 700 or so subs using them.

Have to dig through my trash now lol I assume its the same deal with eth ports on RB450G and others? Question - Its funny your subject listed the RB411. I have had LOTS of RB411 eth ports blown. Obviously I'm not the only one or this thread would not have started. Do you all see the same problems on other routerboards or just the RB411? I'm curious if I were to use say an RB433 would it be any more resilient to close lightning strikes? I'd gladly start using them or whatever else might work. I do have lots of 532's and 133's and they do not seem to have this problem, but I have more RB411's so it could be just statistics... Opinions?
