Newer hardware revisions can be reprogrammed, but it's Windows-only and
price of OXFW911-based enclosure was lower than that of Windows install
media or a new box that would have it preinstalled. If somebody in nc.us
wants to experiment with that junk, they are welcome to it; I don't have
Windows boxen and have better things to spend time and money on...

Not really... Blacklisting that FPOS and recommending to replace it
with real bridge is saner solution, IMO.
