Re: [Firmware] BEFSX41 - Best f/w for my scen. - y

If I am allowed to reply to this thread, then I would like to quote myself from the most stable BEFSX41 firmware thread .

"...Firmware 1.45.7 is using the old style GUI and is the most stable of the two. However, 1.51.00 has neat little new features and is using the new style GUI. In my mind, you shall pick in between those two firmware. Both of them are considered beta material but are much better than the one provided at Linksys web site..."

As additional information, I manage few sites running the BEFSX41. The sites with BEFSX41 running 1.45.7 never had any problems. The sites running 1.51.00, I have taught the users how to reboot the router .

@net.au

Thank you Gentlemen/Ladies one and all for your feedback. I will take it as noted, the votes have come in overwhelmingly in favour of 1.45.7.

Of course, thinking there was no reply coming, I have since downloaded both versions and am presently on the 1.51.00. Always the way............

I will give it a go for now, with the very real possibility of heading back to 1.45.7 if necessary.

Like I said in the original mail, I hadn't really noticed or understood that 1.50.18 was so bad. My reason for asking now, is that I now have need to be 'certain' that any connection I make thru the router will now stay active. (See other thread I'm about to post re router swallowing calls.)

So I now need to make SURE port forwarding is working in whichever version I use.

Thank you again
