I wanted to post a follow-up based on my experience. It turns out that the TRENDNET TU-ET100C adapter only seems to work under a light load. As soon as you stress it, it fails and brings the system down with it. I think it starts to draw too much power from the N810.

I finally went out and got a Linksys USB100M and it works like a charm. I would recommend sticking with that model to avoid trouble.

I also wanted to report that Newegg.com has an adapter cable for the N810 for $1.99 that works well for this application on the N810. It is "Link Depot 3 ft. USB A/male to Micro USB 5 pin male Model
MUSB-3"
