V1.0 firmware Web administration did not display well on Firefox at all. Figure this one out - after some interaction with the box's webserver and Firefox, the performance would deteriorate to the point the thru put was worse than a POTS dial up connection. V2.0 is an improvement in that respect but still buggy. It has a lot more features but who knows if they work at all when a basic rule like "Web Server" Virtual Server does not port forward to the defined IP# on the LAN and opens up the admin page on the WAN port leaving uninitiated users vulnerable? I had even written a personal letter about 502t's QA to Mr. Naik, MD DLink India (after a few frustrating sessions with their Tech. Support in Malad) but guess what - never heard back from him let alone an acknowledgement. -- Arun Khan Linux is like a wigwam - no gates, no windows, apache inside -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
