Actually, I un-blocked all and Updater software worked fine, so I knew it is one of the IPS 'blocks' I had just un-blocked.

Seeing that it will be months before I can try it again, I figured I'd post here, and take my chances. As mentioned, I've a email into support, but I bet they give me the 'Deer in the Headlights' answer....
Yeah but don't the updater use port 80. Sounds more like a personal firewall but I have had many routers and a few can be insane to figure out.
No, I got it down to one of the block/un-blocks from above.

When I finally got to Garmin, they took email and symptoms, and promise to forward it to the software folks, who may or may not get back to me...

Until somebody figures out why, can you download onto computer and then install?

In alll honesty... Don't know if this should be in Software, Linksys, or Security forum.... I felt I'd have best chance here, though....

I've a Garmin GPS, Nuvi 660, and I'm finding my new router: Liksys RVS4000 is blocking the Garmin GPS Updater program from working correctly... It will download 50% of the new firmware, then freeze. By "Non-Blocking" all of the following, I find I can update the firmware... But I'd like to narrow down what was causing the blocking in the router..

Symptom: Firmware will not download past 50% using Garmin GPS Firmware Updater with the following blocked (except Skype, which is not blocked).
Solution: Non Block each of the following:

Linksys RVS4000 in the IPS area:
GNUTELLA_EZPEER Block
FASTTRACK Block
KURO Block
EDONKEY2000 Block
BITTORRENT Block
DIRECTCONNECT Block
PIGO Block
WINMX Block

This section of the IPS tab allows the network's administrator to manage specific IM/P2P functions for access.

Instant Messenger MSN Block
ICQ Block
YAHOO_MESSENGER Block
SKYPE Non-Block
IRC Block
ODIGO Block
REDIFF Block
GOOGLE_TALK Block
IM_QQ Block

Any ideas which would be the culpret? I won't be able to test again until the next firmware version.... which is months away. So I've email'd Garmin, and posted here...
Thanks...

P.S. I was going from V4.6 to V4.7 in the Nuvi 660
