Brian,
I have had mine for nearly four years now and have never had even a negative
burp out of it or my Linksys cable modem. Really sorry to hear you are
having problems as I do like their products. AFAIK their merger with Cisco
has not raised any major changes in the product other than some software
changes.
Have you been able to test your unit on another PC out of your environment?

Subject: Firewall/Router suggestions
I'm fed up with Linksys. I have a BEFSX41 router/firewall that I have used
for about 9 months now. During this time, it has given me nothing but fits.
I can't traceroute through it because the router will reboot if you try to
do it. It just stops passing traffic at random intervals and has to be
rebooted.
I tried getting a replacement from Linksys Tech Support, but the one they
sent me didn't even pass the initial power on test. It just kept locking
up.
Is Netgear a good brand? I want a very good firewall/router unit that I can
rely on without having to do much work on it. I've been looking at the
Netgear business products, and they seem pretty good.
Thanks,
Brian Rudnicke
