if 1.02 is working, it sounds like it would be best for you to not only continue to use it, but also keep a copy for yourself locally, in case it is pulled.
There will always be newer versions that may or may not work for everyone.
Also, did 1.03 work for you?

I also have a problem with the 1.0.4 code and 1.0.3 code. related to DHCP. I use a Motorola SB5120 cable modem. and under 1.0.2 I have no problems with the WAN IP address (DHCP). When I upgrade to 1.0.3 it just sits there and does nothing never getting a address from the SB5120, under 1.0.4 it does the same thing. When I downgrade back to 1.0.2 it works fine again.

 I used the latest version of Wireshark to analyze the DHCP Discover process on the WAN port of the 1.0.2 and 1.0.4 code. I have found that under 1.0.2 code the DIR-655 sends out the DHCP Discover and gets the DHCP offer from the SB5120, then the DIR-655 sends out a DHCP request and receives a DHCP ACK.

Under the 1.0.4 code the DIR-655 sends out a DHCP Discover and gets a the DHCP offer from the SB5120, then the DIR-655 does not send out a DHCP request, it send a another DHCP Discover, the SB5120 sends out a DHCP offer, there is never a DHCP request from the DIR-655, which would lead to a DHCP ACK from the SB5120.

I have the capture files available to D-Links Tech support if you want them.
