 James,

   Good points.  I'll check it out when I get home.  What kinda p's me
   is that, although the technician left the box & cables that came w/
   the modem, there was no instruction booklet.  Thus, the 'standby
   switch' has only been revealed to me now :)

   Regarding the modem status page, I'm assuming that any browser will
   do?

   Thanks again,

   Matt
