Well my first Router died (Linksys BEFSR41 V.2)..
Luckily it was in the 30 day period so I exchanged it for another which happened to have a $15.00 rebate....LOL
Port 4 which I was using on the first one quit working and I could not access the setup software or ping any of the other 3 ports
So, back it went....
I am curious about the setup on these routers. Do you guys set the router to "Obtain an IP Address Automatically" or do you set yours to "Specify an IP Address" ?????
I set mine set to "Obtain an IP Address Automatically" this time and when I do the Port Scan At DSL Reports it sees open Ports. I set the first router to "Specify an IP Address" and it was very secure.
I have my Linksys LNE100TX NIC set to specify an IP Address.
Also have any of you who have this NIC enabled the "Turbo Mode" in the DOS diagnosis???? I wonder if it is faster in Turbo mode. The through-put increased from 44 Mbps to 70+Mbps in the diagnostic tests.
