Title: Firmware 1.20 has Major Flaw!!
Post by: coolguy on July 26, 2008, 10:47:28 PM

Try to change something in Port Forwarding and hit SAVE.. it reboots the whole Wireless automatically.. it is reproducible all times.

Doesn't give you an option to Reboot Later. And I still receive De Authentication errors :(((((

Turns out its not just PORT forwarding... any settings that require a reboot, will automatically Reboot, rather than like before.. REBOOTNOW or REBOOT LATER.

I set all my settings at once and reboot at the end.

Wireless system with MAC address 000000000000 disconnected for reason: Received Deauthentication

Keep getting this every 1/2 hr :(

I just checked this on my router and it seems that you are right about this behavior. If you're configuring your router over wireless I can definitely see how this is a pain in the ass and hopefully DLink will issue some kind of fix.

As for the deauthentication message every 30 minutes...I do get something similar on mine but it's my Wii periodically checking in with the Nintendo mothership. Is the MAC address in this message constantly one machine or is it all wireless clients?

How many wireless clients do you have? Are any getting disconnected?

I ask because it is not possible to have a real MAC with 000000000000 as the address unless someone is trying to spoof it...

Other than the fact I couldn't use my save settings, everything had to be re-done. 20Hz for 802.11g better than 1.11 firmware. I was having wireless issues with that prior firmware. The new one seems to add or run better.

I mentioned this in another thread but I experience this also, with any saved change...reboot.
