The only difference between the M1122 and the Ni500 is that the M1122 has a
built in hub. However nokia want you to pay a huge premium for the advanced
software in the M1122, so they have cut down the software in the Ni500. This
means that you can't run any servers on the Ni500.

A software upgrade would solve this.
