I don't know how related they are (if at all), but we were suckered into
buying several Dell PowerConnect 3248's some time ago.  We have a serious
issue with them in that the telnet CLI tends to cease properly accepting
connections after a while...making them effectively dumb unmanaged L2
switches.  If anyone's aware of a fix for this (other than serial
consoles), I'd love to hear it.
