Re: "error found on page" when adding lan clients

I have found that the seperator used in the MAC address is different in the 'lAN clients' section of the Advanced tab, and the 'Management' section of the Wireless tab.

Unstable ADSL since line upgraded to 20Mb download

The ISP upgraded the broadband service about a month ago, and since then the line has become very unstable. At first I thought that the ocassional dropout was the equipment finding a good balance.

Did a hard reset again, enabled the wireless function, but noticed that the WLAN led does not light.
Switched for a few seconds and powered up again to see a steady WLAN led during the boot sequence, but it went out.
On checking the wireless setup screen, the wireless was enabled.

I change settings, move to another screen, then immediately return to find the original WEP settings again. If I select another WEP key, hitting the "apply" button reverts to th...

Thanks TheChief. I used 'ftp' to 'put' the firmware onto the unit. Having logged into the remote server in 'ftp' I declared the file 'type' to be 'image' (the file is binary rather than the 'ftp' default of ascii.) I then 'put' the .img file from the local directory to the remote /var/ directory as ...
