A friend of mine has had issues with his RE220 simply dropping  
the connection at times.  He writes, "the RE220 occasionally  
goes offline and needs to be reset"

Anyway.. I decided to feed ethernet after all.  The result  
ain't 100% pretty, but about 80% looks fine after my hack  
install.  There is a small section that needs to cross about 4  
ft of carpet. I can probably cover that with a proper cable   
cover.  Then there is about another 8 ft that can sit loose  
under a counter to the switch that feeds the rest of my wired  
network.

I will never really need the wifi capability of the deco. Too  
bad I can't turn that off.
