Hi Guys Pablolie - only windows firewall, no third party apps. slimserver is also set an an exception. Phil - I have not used MAC filtering before and am not too familiar with it, any pointers? I've read many issues on here with the DG series of Netgear routers and i'm coming to the conclusion that this may be the problem but i'm determined to try and get it working. Its not like it doesn't work, its just that it seems to be constantly 'connection timed out' I'm using he latest firmware (updated yesterday) and always use numbers and letters in my WEP/ WPA passwords. really stumped to be honest..... -- Big AAC ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Big AAC's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13457 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=39088 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
