Let us know how it works for you...

I know you say "if it ain't broke don't fix it", but it drives me crazy when there's an update and I don't have it. I almost got in trouble once flashing a motherboard BIOS, it failed, and I couldn't boot for a second. Luckily the motherboard has something built in to protect itself and the second time flash worked.

Well for some of us tech geeks who like to play, I suppose upgrading is good too. Just remember to save the routers config to file before upgrading, so if you need to downgrade for any reason, you don't have to waste time in setting it up again. I have several back ups for each version of FW I test out. Do you still have your 825?

So far i Am running well with the newest firmware no issues on my end yet...Currently running my pandora and just watched movie wirelessly on my x1. with no lag or intermittent wireless. seeing i diddnt have a problem with the original firmware either but still work just fine. i did set the wireless up to seperate the wireless only devices that can see the secondary 5Ghz can connect to it and same as the rest of the devices going down the spectrum to the 2.4Ghz.

Awesome, thank you for the feedback. Let us know if you see anything else or have other experiences. Mines working well too on this version of FW.
Enjoy. ;)

For the login failure after fw upgrade issue, you just have to clear your browser cache and restart the browser to successfully login.

Any status on this? ???

HHHHMMMM I guess I should've cleared broswer cache.. :o It appears 1.06 has some issues, are other users experiencing the same thing??? If so, Furry you need to report back and possibly pull the FW???
-
WE need to find out first if this was a browser issue first...no body else has responded or reported having issues with it...
People need to follow the >FW Update Process (http://forums.dlink.com/index.php?topic=42457.0) to ensure a good installation of the FW. ::)
