[plug] Westnet DSL troubles: probably not linux issue - firmware?

[andre.thomas at switch.aust.com]

I know this is straying further from Linux, but during all of this did 
anyone come across a firmware update past 1.14AU for the DSL-300?  The 
dlink.com.au site doesnt have any software for it at all, and the latest 
dlink.com.tw has for Australia is the one that is on our DSL-300 already. 

According to the TW website:  DSL-300. Firmware Version becomes R1.14AU of July,17 2001.  Been a while since the last update...


Regards,

André Thomas

Yep, updating the firmware does help.  I've got a DSL-500 and I use it 
in router mode atm (gotta get around to rebuilding my Linux box one of 
these days).

There is a 2.02 version thats been out for at least a month now and mine 
has had less troubles since I flashed it.
