XP SP3 and Billion routers

Post by mstombs » Sun Jun 08, 2008 10:50 am

XP SP3 apparently exposes a critical bug in some Billion router firmwares

I've not seen any such problems with XP SP3 and Routertech or other firmwares here!

I have been using XP SP3 for almost a month and I haven't seen any problem with my SART2-4115 or ADSL2MUE (both running RT firmware). I even backed up my OS drive before I installed SP3, but I haven't detected any problems of note.

I wonder what the exact cause is (maybe some updated network drivers) and how router/firmware specific the bug is...
