Yeah, I kind of figured that out after reading the manual a few times...

No, it is, but it forces everything through a single, 10/100Mbit port,
rather than a gigabit switch. Yes, its fast, but with 30+ people hitting
it all day every day, I'd rather have it running on a gigabit switch
without having to go through a firewall bottleneck.

Yeah, me too. It's a very useful little app, though, and I definitely
have added it to my toolkit.

Thanks for the dialogue, and the app!
