=> which one? Sabrent has a 10/100 NT-USB20 and a Giga USB-G1000
(for the second the Sabrent site says it is supported by Linux
2.6.31, BTW the too old kernel version of OpenWRT we complained about
Yesterday is 2.6.32 :-).
BTW if it is the second (USB-G1000) and it works well I can try to get
one (it is cheap enough and it should work on my MacOS X laptop,
the one with a broken Ethernet :-). (PS: it seems it is not sold
in France...)

Thanks
