Title: 2.05 upgrade problem
Post by: phin on August 07, 2011, 11:21:53 AM

I just upgraded to 2.05 from 2.02 so I could reserve ip addresses for devices whose mac addresses didn't start with 00.

but now i cannot access the internet.  i saved my settings and reapplied them.  i can connect if if I bypass the router and connect my broadband directly to my pc.

my internet icon on my router comes on amber and steady.  Any ideas for things to try?  Any other info you would like to have in order to help?  I ran ipconfig /all on my pc while connected to the internet and it seems the router is pulling the same ips.  I am running dynamic dhcp for my internet connection and have also tried static with no success.

Thank you in advance!

I can ping my gateway when the broadband is connected to my pc, but i can't when it is connected to the router.

Ok, i reverted back to 2.02NA and my internet works again.  But I need to be able to reserve ips for mac addresses that don't start with 00!

Have you selected the update button on the routers web page? There is a v.2.06 apparently out and available.

You  can use TMAC to change the mac-address.

I tried 2.06 and couldn't get it to install.  Maybe i will try again.

And I will check out TMAC.

Thanks for the help!
