What's affected?
I've seen a number of articles on this botnet, but not one so far has listed affected devices. The closest has been "Linux-based modems and routers". Does that mean, for example, WRT54Gs (modified or unmodified)? In some cases, DSL modems are listed...what if the ISP has enabled remote access and it's not modifiable by the end user? Rebooting eliminates it only until it's found again, and if I were running the botnet, I'd keep scanning that subnet as I know they're all on the same ISP and thus potential hosts.
