PoE can be simple and very stable method, not sure of the max distance of PoE as compared to simple Ethernet, need to do some searching... My problem is still putting a hole in the ceiling/wall intersection... at least in the room where most of our sleeping is done! Would you mind, Felix, using the poll to register your Brand? I'm going to edit the choices, somewhat, just listing the brand, not specific models. Some have complained about not having their model listed, perhaps a few more will make the effort to increase the value of the data.
Bull, that's exactly the name of one of the 'brands' at the Chinese site I mentioned elsewhere. They've put a lot of effort into building a site, but even that is inconsistent. I usually over-look any grammar/language problems; I speak/write absolutely no Chinese (or any of its many dialects!). But support is where most companies fall down. It may just be poor planning at best or lack of knowledge of Macs. Fortunately, many hardware companies are realizing that a web interface can be all the 'localization' needed for different hardware as well as world-wide access. And pixels can be a lot cheaper than paper!
