Re: wrtg54
is there any possibility that this firmware could be the host of a virus? Afterall the companies in question, are located abroad.. and.. the router is a gateway to everything we receive and everything we send.. all those passwords |

Nevermind--(man do I feel stupid). I had two firmware bin files on my desktop and I inadvertently chose an old Linksys update.
I have successfully applied the new update, and am thrilled with it so far. |

I downloaded the firmware update, followed the directions step by step, got a successful completion message, rebooted my router (i.e., held down the reset button for 8-10 seconds and watched the router reset,) brought up the admin page, and with the exception of the firmware version number, everything looks exactly the same. No bandwidth management...nottta.
I do not have a Version 2 router, so I'm confused at this point. Anyone else having this problem? |

I have an older router from LinkSys with QoS built in. Never had a need for it though. My wireless router from them doesn't have it. Even still, I don't have a need for it (yet).

Salisbury, MD | It works like a Charm. Being able to set priority to services helps soooo much. If only linksys would do a firmware like this on their own. |
