.73 is a beta on the RU FTP site. I'm not sure if this will work on a NA region unit. I presume it might however there are probably differences between EU and NA units as far as FW goes.

I would recommend until you can get in touch with someone who can help you out at D-Link, I would hold off on trying anything from the RU site. .73 is for the 250N and I don't see a version listed for the 250 model. I don't think they are interchangeable. Possible however the N version is for wireless I believe.

So the only number i've been advised to is the following for any one in Canada:
http://www.dlink.com/ca/en/support/contact-support

And apparently anyone from the U.S. Cannot access this number. I would phone them back again and see if you can get a hold of anyone higher up, level 3 or more. This needs to be seen by someone who has knowledge about the DSR series and can take it from there. My contact said they would look into this as well. No time frame though.

At least D-Link has been made aware of the problem.

Keep us posted on how it goes.

I submitted the issue again... Will see what happens.

The phone number listed on the website is for consumer support only, they will not speak to me about this product at that number, beleive me I've tried.

WOW, getting no where fast I see. 

Ok, I'll keep check here to see if anything comes up. Thank you for your patience.

Please let us know if you find out anything.

Finally got an email response for my request;

Dear Rick,

I believe you should be able to set 24 DHCP reservations. However can you please upgrade the firmware to being 1.05B53. The file can be downloaded from the following link http://tsd.dlink.com.tw/downloads2008.asp  and select your DSR 250 and the firmware file that you wan is the one that says DSR-250_A1_v1.05B53(WW)

Thank you for networking with D-Link .

I will try the firmware upgrade and see what happens I guess, sure would be nice if they actually knew for sure rather then us having to be Guinea Pigs with their firmware.

Rick

Glad someone responded.

I would factory reset the router before the upgrade then after.

Keep us posted on how it goes.

I see this firmware has been out for a while, makes me wonder why I was not told that before in dealing with my other issue where the routing does not work on this box.  I'd be curious to see if this solves both issues.

And or why this firmware is not listed on the website.

Hopefully can get to this in the day or so.

Rick

Hope it fixes it.
