Nathan,

I picked up an Actiontec R1524SU at the developer's meeting last week. Don't
know if it works entirely or not, but appears to power up ok. I was going to
use it as a backup for a customer, but you can have it if you'd like. The
Actiontec presently at the customer's site is configured as a bridge, and I
have an IPCop behind it which connects with PPPoE just fine. I'm not sure
what that model number is though.

I have relatives in Payson that will be visiting this weekend. I can send it
up there with them when they return on Sunday if you'd like. Let me know if
you'd like to have it.
