 USB disk for root looks Ok, I need it only as 3G <-> WiFi gateway, so USB
is not used anyway.
 With "native" firmware (the latest one) wifi is very unstable, it looks
like "working" (clients are associated, but after 3-5 minutes no traffic
pass till new disconnect/connect cycle).


P.S. I've changed mailing list to embedded, as wireless was my mistake,
actually.
