See my previous reply for a definition of beta - you're free to call it what you want - but strictly speaking only D-Link can define whether a particular piece of code is beta - bugs or no bugs, it is the manufacturer's decision to release it.

I guess now you don´t want to understand the point. Maybe there is a reason for this?

Yes, "only D-Link". When, like only D-Link Australia released a firmware then everybody worldwide can use this version. And it doesn´t matter if this version called or called not beta, is beta or is not beta!

D-Link firmwares are not made in single D-Link countries. They are produced by D-Link central. Most of them by D-Link in Taiwan or by the equipment manufacturers like Alpha Networks for the D-Link DNS devices. If every D-Link country is doing their own quality testing, then there are, there must be significant differences in the quality of testing.

By the way - consider this my final answer.

I understand this now very well. Merry Christmas.  ;)

Tilly. Fordem is correct.

It does seem odd that their software status is not globally unified, but I’m sure it has 100% to do with internal technical support for their customers. I’m guessing D-Link USA doesn’t have their customer support staff trained for 1.06 yet. For all we know, their shelving certification for economic and not technical reasons.

The bottom line is this. Run beta software all you want, but at your own peril. If you want to retain warranty and technical support with D-Link, stay with official released software only. It’s all about understanding the rules of what is and is not covered between you and the company you wish to do business with. Like it or not.  :-\

Props to D-Link for updating this great product.

I look forward to D-Link's continued support, thanks!

(1.06 flashed and working great so far!)

For all you early adopters, can I assume an uneventful upgrade from 1.05? Hard drive reformat not needed? :)

BTW, I have hardware revision A1, single drive in the right bay, standard mode. All important data is of course already backed up...somewhere...
