The Netgear FVG318 
(http://www.netgear.com/Products/VPNandSSL/WirelessVPNFirewallRouters/FVG318.aspx)
 is vunerable to a Denial of Service attack where a flood of bad checksum TCP 
packets will lock the router up, forcing a hard reset.


This can be acheived with a program such as fragrouter or even an innocent 
program such as Azureus when sending/receiving a lot of bad packets.


I deceided to release this information after netgear seemingly uncaringly for 
their customers has deceided to not progress on diagnosing this bug for over 2 
months.


My Firmware ver. = V1.0.40. Can anyone else confirm this with different or the 
same versions?
