Re: [TrendNet] TEW-432BRP vD1.0 blocking some secure sites
I had the same problem as UnrealLiquid. I recently upgraded the firmware on my TEW-432BRP D1.0R and it stopped working for some websites such Hotmail, MSN, and some other non-Microsoft ones. I tried a hard reset and loading setup defaults, changing MTU, etc. but nothing worked. It is not due to a double-NAT situation because I have only one router and the WAN IP is not NATed. It is not the computer because I have two of them (one Vista, one XP) and they both don't work. I am going to have to replace the router if I can't get an old firmware or a fix. |

| Well I gave up and got a new Linksys to replace this piece of garbage Trendnet. But just to add some parting info that may or may not be useful:
The original working firmware was 3.00b0006
The defective firmware you can get from the official website is 3.00b0011
There is a Russian website, »downloads.trendnet.ru that has 3.00b0015 and 3.00b0019, for some reason not available on the main site, but 3.00b0019 did not fix things and I didn't try 3.00b0015.
Since that Russian site has newer firmware maybe the next one they release (if any) will fix this problem, it could be on that site before the official one, so look there first. Perhaps useful info to someone.
I suppose it is possible that it is not the firmware, but something in the configuration that gets corrupted, however I have hard reset the router several times, loaded setup defaults, with no result. |

| Well I'll just say again, even with the OFFICIAL update firmware, have yet to encounter that problem with ANY secure site.
Care to give some example sites for me to try... you may have had something else going on.
