RE: [WISPA] linksys conspiracy
I know what you mean there on the reset button issue, but I know for a fact that these guys have not reset their routers. Right now I’m running a lot of Tranzeo CPE’s and those don’t have NAT or DHCP built in, except for the newer CPQ’s but those CPQ’s are generating enough phone calls as it is, that’s why I’m trying out some Canopy gear.

Re: [WISPA] linksys conspiracy
I know that the Linksys Wireless-G routers "V5" that are on the shelves now have firmware issues. One of them is obtaining a DHCP-assigned address from a Windows2000 DHCP server. Firmware v1.00.4 fixed this, and I see that v1.00.6 is out now with even more fixes.
