Linksys BEFW11S4 ver.3: Upgrade firmware? Eugene F. 03-29-2005

Hi,

My Linksys Wireles / 4-port Router shows "1.45z, Feb 28 2003" firmware
version. According to the web-site the latest for this model is
1.45.10 (dated 4/15/2004), which is one step up.

I'm experiencing connection interruptions that are especially annoying
when I'm using VPN and quickly run out of available sessions.

I'm not sure whether the improvements made between the two versions
could resolve my problem
(http://www.linksys.com/download/vertxt/befw11s4v3.2_ver.txt).

Any opinions?

TIA, Eugene

Brad,

While I see "Recommended Firmware Upgrade for the BEFW11S4 Version 4"
document there I found no similar guidelines for Version 3.

Have I missed something?

You must not have selected v3 from the master list.

Q,

If you can see my original message you would notice that I have found
the upgrade. What I could not find is when (in plain terms) this
upgrade is actually recommended.
