The Sabrent model number is USB-G1000. We will try it out and see how it
works...

=> it is very closed to my pocket switch (i.e., it should be the same device
sold over two names :-).

=> 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
