Hello Bas,

Someone else reported a glowing fuse recently and my
colleague, who had been most doubtful. We never saw
that happening. Anyway, looks like your board is indeed
broken and I'd suggest to send it back to egnite for repair
or replacement.

Right, Ethernut 2 is quite well protected against power
supply problems. On the other hand, something on the
board consumes too much current and might get broken
sooner or later. Therefore I'd recommend to return it.
