Yeah.  Been there done that.  We set ours to default to ON though.

I also have to be careful to turn off the "allow access from same subnet

I've had 1 or two of these units fail, ever.  I probably have 8 or 10 of 
them out there (more going in from time to time) some for many years now.

laters,
marlon
