NeRP,
This is what I thought. = I downloaded the latest firmware and it changed nothing. I already have DHCP turned off and use 192.168.1.x address range. But, i= f I have the router send all 1024-6000 ports to my Amiga, won't it possib= ly kill apps running on my other network PCs that need these ports? I th= ought that I already tried this to no effect, but I will try again just t= o be sure. It would be awesome if you can find that AmIRC plugin for me. I have don= e some extensive searches on the net and come up with no answers. -Steve On 26-Mar-02, NeRP wrote: > It is definately the fault of the Linksys Router.
