I am assuming that you turned on https remote access in the router. Did you actually confirm that? I would suggest that you re-access your router and check it. If it is turned on, turn it off and save the setting then exit. Now reenter the router, re-enable the setting and save it. Now exit again. I have seen all types of devices, and I am sure you have also, that need to be "tricked" into working correctly. Did you configure the router to reserve the IP address of the FreeBSD box? If not, that could be a problem. I have seen it before. I am sure you have; however, are you absolutely sure you have the right IP addresses configured? Is "DMZ" turned on? If it is set to the FreeBSD box, turn off any other port forwarding to that box. If not, try turning it on and removing all the other port forwarding settings. See if it makes any difference. Without actually accessing the router all I can really do is guess. I do doubt that there is really a problem with it though; however, trying a new one might be a good idea. If possible, get the E4200 model. It is one "bad ass" router. Maybe someday FreeBSD will develop drivers for Wireless-N devices so that you can take advantage of its full potential. If all else fails, create a detailed BUG report and submitted it to linksys. It certainly cannot hurt and you might even get an answer directly from their tech department. One other idea, are you sure you have the latest firmware installed? It wouldn't hurt to double check. -- Jerry ✌ jerry+fbsd@seibercom.net Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or ignored. Do not CC this poster.
