Even doing simple things like trying to wget the status page in order to determine what my external ip address is a pain in the ass.
And you really can't script changes to the thing in any way that I could figure out.
The web interface itself has issues to begin with; the javascript check on ip addresses entered in the form always tells me it's not formatted correctly even though I know it is, and it won't let the form save.
Plus every week or so throughput drops from an average 160k/sec down to 3 or 4k which only a router reboot resolves.
Basically I think the things a piece of crap. I'm anxiously awaiting my pci adsl card so I can drop the external modem and integrate it into my own system...

Worst I ever bought was a D-Link home router. It plain sucked. -- [email protected] mailing list
