    I haven't noticed any problems with .92 either, but I upgraded, so if it was installer issues, I wouldn't have seen it. And I'm using the harddrive version.  I have noticed a little better performace too.  Previous to the .92 upgrade I was noticing a lot of states as well, but once I had done the update, the performance increased again.  ;D

    @Braindead_One:

    I Already have a switch, but it is in different room. There is only room for 1 Cable to the closet, so i'd have to buy a second switch just to split the 1 Cable into 2. And that would really be a waste of money ;)

    I never asked nor demanded anyone to implement anyting! I Just asked whether it is possible to start the Webinterface when there is ony 1 nic and, after the "no" by cmb i asked why….

    I think it's an unnecessary limitation that the Webinterface only works if 2 nics are Present.

    You can't be a firewall without two interfaces (whether they're logical or physical).  I'm aware that the PPPOE interface is a logical NIC - however we don't treat it as another NIC, it doesn't exist until the connection is up.  So you need either two physical NICs or 1 NIC with multiple VLANs (which are exposed in the webGUI).  I don't see the requirements for two NICs ever changing, however some day we might expose the PPPOE logical NIC as another NIC in the webGUI which will allow what you want.  There are some rather nasty underlying problems with how NICs are setup that need to be addressed first.
