Now that is very revealing. It gives a whole new significance to
the statement "I didn't attempt to copy down on a piece of paper
what it wrote; trust me that it was unenlightening garbage."

Anyway, moving on, here's a quotation from
http://www.linksys.com/no/support-article?articleNum=135444

"The Linksys WUMC710 is a single band Wireless-AC Wi-Fi 5GHz Universal
 Media Connector Bridge with 4-Port Switch capable of connecting
 Ethernet devices to a wireless network."

I think I'll quit here. Carrying on is too painful.

Cheers,
David.
