In very small situations I've been very happy with this desktop POE switch $69 http://shop1.frys.com/product/4971591<BR>

I have not personally tried using FF under Linux with these, though I <BR>
ran across a number of posts that say it doesn't work. I know FF2 and <BR>
the latest FF3 don't work under Mac (don't work for the SRW that is) <BR>
and I know they don't work on Windows. (Linksys' official statement is <BR>
to use that ietab plugin that embeds IE in a firefox tab). I would <BR>
expect FF to behave the same as far as what works and doesn't in all 3 <BR>
environments, but maybe not. I'll install FF3 on my Linux server and <BR>
try as that would be more convenient than firing up Parallels <BR>
everytime I need to change a config option in the switch. On Win/Mac <BR>
it lets you log in but the "main menu" screen is blank, nothing to <BR>
click on, just the background template. *shrug* Seeing as we already <BR>
need more than the 8 ports I think I'll stick to the 24/48 port <BR>
versions anyway.<BR>
