The power issue can be solved

1) They sale 10 ft heavy duty USB cable, for printers and the like, use one.

2) Run an extra power cable and spliced into the USB cable, or Run two 10 foot USB cable and join them together at your modem.

One thing I would add to this is that some USB power sources can't handle 10ft of cable. There's just too much draw from the modem. In my experiments, keep it under 1ft to keep the card from crashing every 2 seconds.
