Re: New Firmware Ver. 1.32b02NA_beta01 for DIR-655
Running this firmware now for a few days on my A4 version. As with the first beta of 1.32NA, I have noticed about every 8~10 hours the log shows "wireless restart" but the router does not boot to recover. I run reserved DHCP so the laptops seem to recover pretty quickly.
I do not run the Guest SSID, but I also have not seen it auto turn on nor broadcast under both beta versions of 1.32NA which others have mentioned in other threads.
I do not use the advanced DNS per I really seen no value to it when I tested it in version >1.31.
Running Securespot first level. Does not seem to have any issues, able to filter bad sites quickly while identifying most devices correctly. The only device which I thought was quirky was Securespot could not identify the Dlink made DNS-323 NAS nor did they even have an option for a NAS.
Running PS3, PS2, Wii, Tivo, desktops, laptops and winmo 6.1 phone is able to all link up with it and run to web without issues. PS3 seems to lag at times but I still blame that on crappy Sony drivers for their own wireless nic. It has had issues when wired or wireless to dlink, linksys and Belkin products I have tested it on.
One quirk I did note starting on 1.31. Under the QOS engine tab, the auto detect on connection type does not seem to work correctly on a cable connection. Set it manually for cable or broadband. Most of the time it seems to discover the upstream speed better then when matched against the various speed test sites and a greater value. |
