Re: AirLink 108mbps router I corrected a serious flaw of my Airlink router by flashing the firmware with KCorp's firmware. I run web and email servers behind this router (formerly a Linksys) and noticed that the Airlink made the web sites I host unreachable. The same was true for mail servers. I had given up on the Airlink and their tech support was no help. I put the Linksys back in production and the problem went away. It was clearly related to the Airlink.
The KCorp firmware solved this issue and raised a question. Since it appears XR technology was already in place on the Airlink why was it not available until a flash with KCorp firmware? |

We saw this with 4x, Super G, and WPA as well.
It could be that the chipset vendors release a chipset with n functionality, then keep the line going and the price propped up by enabling these features on a piecemeal basis.

| This is line with Intel's 486 chip having the coprocessor clipped and today's P4 having HT disabled. They are both present just disabled and you have to pay a higher price per chip to have them turned on.
BTW - The KCorp firmware does seem to be 1.6.6. |

Can you please give me a link to this firmware that you updated the Airlink with?
