That definitely has changed. Now, using any browser under Linux, (I usually
use Mozilla) you log onto the Dlinks assigned IP address, enter a password

Nice and easy. I already setup 2 new rules under "filters" so I can turn my 12

going for them. This is for when they are home and I'm not. Not that I don't
trust them. <grin>
BTW, this Dlinks' model number is DI-604.
