Downloaded the file and tried accessing the modem as described, but apparently my modem does think that its dumb since when I try to browse to 192.168.1.1 I don't get any reply. I belive it does think that that is its address, since it does answear the arp request for that address (at list I belive the modem is the one answearing that since I made sure it wasn't connected at the time and its the only thing on that interface on non of my machines has that address). > Warning: when configured as a router, there are 3 known bugs: > > 1) ports 6667-6668 (IRC) are blocked - you can't use IRC > 2) port 1720 is blocked - H.323 protocol (Netmeeting anyone ?) won't > work > 3) Passwords containing some special characters are not handled > correctly (at least with Netvision).
