Re: BEFSX41 Firmware 1.52.3 - POST YOUR RESULTS HERE

Flog......

I agree with your posting here. I'm doing a cut & paste on the items I found, and entered into the other thread:

Within 2 days I encountered a DNS issue (could Ping IP of DLSR but not www.dslreports.com) Had an IP, but could't DNS. Fixed by power cycle. It occurred the next day... That's when I went back. Once back at V1.45.7 all was OK.

Other things noticed. Logging was absolutely horrendous, either locally, or with Latest Wallwatcher. Would not log incoming probes after about 2 minutes. Outgoing locations sometimes stopped being logged after time server access. Speaking of time server access, Logs reported multiple time servers being accessed (that I hear aren't really occurring ???) when a user specified time server was entered. Logs were also full of nonsense posts to Port 0, and random resets that LED's didn't confirm..
Using blocking by keyword would reset BEFSX41 before it could be verified if it worked or not, let alone logged. (I had been warned that timestamps were inoperative) So I didn't try it. During the setup screens the "WHITE PAGES" involving reload or back/fwd were more numerous than V1.45.7 but far less numerous than any 1.5x. that preceeded V1.52.3.

The random Resets I see on Java based speedtests were not evident on this version, (But I encounter on V1.45.7).

Speedtests, were identical to V1.45.7. ftp transferrs seemed identical to V1.45.7, too.

I went back to V1.45.7 after encountering DNS issues for the 2nd time, that occurred simultaneously with SBC Problem in Chicagoland. Couldn't determine if problem was SBC or BEFSX41 firmware version without changing one of the variables... I went back to V1.45.7 and everything returned to normal (And I never was affected by the problems that SBC had in Chicagoland that weekend, I may add).
