Someone on the forum had mentioned that disabling the logs had given them more up time before a reboot. Since this does not effect any performance features I went ahead and gave it a try.

Even with the new beta FW our A1 router was rebooting about once every three days and now that I have disabled just the informational view levels in the log options we have achieved a up time of just under six days at this point. I still have the critical and warning view level log options checked and the log is still empty since the change.

When I shut it down to replace it with an A2 that D-Link so kindly (Thanks D-Link) sent to us it was just over 8 days without a reboot. I now have an  A2 unit that has FW 1.14 which I just got setup 16 hours ago so we will see how it works out for us. My son said his x-box live connection signal was stronger and he had no lag playing COD 4 last nite, so far so good.

I am wondering if I should update to FW 1.15 which gave us no problems on our A1 ?
Does it offer any major improvements over FW 1.14 that would make it a necessary upgrade ?

I'm also thinkin if it ain't broke don't fix it may be my new rule with this new A2 unit.

Yeah, my speed's ok. It goes up and down using the 4500. I turn off the information log alert half the time. I could not view the log. It's say something like "Too much information to display. Unable to display logs." !! Now for COD 4 or 5, it depends on the host that is running. Like I could be the host of the game and then the next game I am not.

Smith,

What H/W version is your unit?

Firmware Version : 1.21NA Dgl 4500

My DGL-4500 has been up for a few weeks since Ru-fi-oh put out the phase 3 beta i have a WAN and a LAN configured  this is how it looks to be simple


                                       |Xbox 360                |Xbox 360
COX---Modem---DGL-4500--|Switch--------------|Desktop
                                       |Desktop                  |Desktop                |PS3
                                       |6 Wireless Devices    |Belkin Router-------|Desktop

so yes i have alot of stuff connected to it i havent had any problems with it the 6 wireless devices are (Wii, 2 Laptops, 2 Desktops, and an Ipod Touch.

(IM's, Downloads, Uploads, Gaming, shopping, Schooling, and Video calling, All at once i usually nvr have lag issue but im only getting the 20Mbs from Cox like im suppose to be getting. so i dont know how others r having problems but mine is busy 24/7

Smith, he's looking for the hardware version, not FW, there is a sticker label underneath the unit, look for H/W:

I have a question. I'm sure everyone have had asked it before, but question is, If D-Link has knowledge about the FW 1.21NA lockups and crashes. Why is it taking this long to get it resloved? I mean I'm sure they got hundreds of complaints back-to-back about the FW 1.21NA. It just makes no sense to take this long to resolve it... Plus why have the removed the ability to downgrade below FW 1.20. See this is what I mean if you have a problem with a FW, the best way of troubleshooting is to downgrade it. But you can't both FW 1.20 and 1.21NA are bugged! I hope they can get a new FW as soon as possible. I'm getting tired of pulling the power plug!
