+A Note about the wrong Community string or wrong SNMP Version :
+
+If a connection is using the wrong community string or the wrong SNMP version,
+the creation of the object will not fail.  The device still answers the call on the
+SNMP port, but will not return information.  Check the error() method after you create
+the device object to see if there was a problem in connecting.
+
+A note about SNMP Versions :
+
+Some older devices don't support SNMP version 2, and will not return anything when a
+connection under Version 2 is attempted.
+
+Some newer devices will support Version 1, but will not return all the data they might have
+if you had connected under Version 1 
+
+When trying to get info from a new device, you may have to try version 2 and then fallback to 
+version 1.
