On a down side i have a slightly older netgear one that looses its IP
address or routing after an hour or 2, dosn't make any difference if i
set it static or dynamic. Its just rubbish.  After a cold power up it
works for a while, great for IPP.

Don't think its got anything to do with working under linux. Some of
them just don't seem to work.
