| reply to Linksys Tech2 Please send via email the beta software. I have a BEFW11S4 version 1 (original). My current firmware is 1.40.3. Serial no: G2710706286. A small problem is the router needs to be reset, perhaps once per day, when my Internet Connection freezes or gets very slow. When this happens, it freezes both the wired and wireless computers. Do you think beta firmware will cure this? Any other suggestions? I run Windows 2000 Professional
You can send the new beta firmware to: PLewin@optonline.net [text was edited by author 2002-04-20 07:56:48] |

Anyhoo.... got and flashed 1.42.7 last night without any problems including some changes.
What bothers me (and has with past betas!) is Linksys' total lack of any documentation, particularly involving new features. Linksys, how about at least a text file describing new features / configuration, etc. -- Gimme one good reason why the world should kiss your butt? |
