Title: 1.20 fw working for me.
Post by: zoulkyud on August 04, 2009, 12:23:08 AM: I dont know if I am the only one, but my router and its wireless are working. I am curious what 1.21 changes really and if its worth the update. If you are needing any info let me know. My router does have an issue with keeping accurate time it seems :( but aside from that it seems to be working. I think the last time I reset it was a reboot for settings change. I can send you my settings config file. Before I update to 1.21. I am curious if you could use any of my data off my router or logs or something to help you. feel free to let me know.

Post by: arod on August 04, 2009, 08:33:21 AM: I'm curious to see how long you can run the router for without rebooting. Keep us posted. Good thing is if you do decide to upgrade to 1.21 you can still downgrade back to 1.20.

What Hardware version is your router? and who is your ISP? What connection speeds are you getting?

Post by: zoulkyud on August 04, 2009, 11:18:41 AM: Well pge came by and cut off my power for 10 minutes. So my whole uptime test kind of went haywire. This is hardware A1. I figured I would run it for about a month to see if it was still working but but now I am just tempted to update the firmware since pge reset it :-p

My isp is also verizon fios.

I wish that was true but it's not. The 1.21NA doesn't solve anything for me and actually makes some things worse.

The wireless is one of the most important features of this router so packet loss isn't good or acceptable. If you don't need a wireless router, the DGL-4100 or even a DGL-4300 (if you can't find a 4100) would make much better choices.
