Just received this in an email from- ZDNet Tech Update Today - and it answers some questions about my own problems with some of my Linksys routers that I have been experiencing in the past six months. Added it to my personal Tech Archive.

My Linksys router/firewalls--old and new--have suffered a variety of Universal Plug-n-Play problems, port vulnerabilities and reliability issues. Apparently, a combination of engineering difficulties and design decisions are leaving Linksys customers exposed to potential security problems, including that new looming threat to all Internet users--the mini Distributed Denial of Service attack.

I have a linksys router and ive never had any problems. Port forwarding has always worked fine for me. His article is rubbish:

1: He's complaining that his 4 YEAR OLD router isn't working right

2: Rather than taking responsibility that he has no idea what he's doing, he blames the firmware.

3: He quotes steve gibson, the biggest loser on the internet.

Just ignore the article.

-gosh
