Re: I'm confused about the whole issue You can log in to the router, but you will have very limited control over the router. Cisco severely cripples your control locally.
In order to modify such things as Guest Access and port forwarding or other advanced features, you must have internet access and log in to Cisco Connect Cloud. There is no opt-out. The privacy-invasive ToS was the icing on the cake. |

kudos:1 | WTF. So if this service goes down, temporarily or permanently, the router configuration is severely crippled? So stupid. |

kudos:1 | I think the procedure to revert to non-cloud-crippled firmware also had logging into the cloud configuration as one of the steps. LOLOL
Also isn't Cisco rumoured to be shutting down the whole consumer division? If true how long will they keep the service up after that? |
