like I said

if the download link is 'broken' access it using this url:
http://wl500g.info/showthread.php?t=1505

thus access the URL thread first, then click the link. Be sure you are using the http://wl500g.info url

currently the apache servers checks for this, I'm already looking into this to change it.
Or if you use some dumb firewall (internet security or other crap) then it will or can fail as well.

Download link works for me, looks like you are using some browser "enchancement", which wipes out Referer field. Disable it.

It is a pity but I have brought back my WL500G to the shop and got my money back.....
I tried everything to get it to work properly, searched any avenue on this forum, tried all the firmware combinations from ASUS and Intel but it just would not work reliably

At the start the connection is great, icon says excellent connection 54 Mbps but within 5 minutes it drops to 1Mbps and drops the connection after an other minute or two, reconnects and the story starts all over again.

It is a shame because I loved the feature set that was ever expanding with the help of Oleg and the other contributors.

Can someone send me a mail when there is a new version of the router that works as advertised???? (and keeps doing that).

Back on my old Linksys with 11Mbps but reliable!!

The problems with the connection are exactly the same as i was having when using Intel's PROset/Driver combination 9.0.1/9.0.1.9. No matter which ASUS firmware i used. Even with LinkSys WAP54G i had the same problems.
Intel's PROSet/Driver 8.1.0/8.1.0.28 are good in combination with most ASUS Firmware's.
Have you been reading this thread from page 1 on?
Can you give us a description of your setup?

My set up is quite simple, WL500G and my Laptop (Centrino 2200BG).

I used all versions of the firmware from ASUS and Oleg with 1.8 and 1.9 Intel versions. Testing cost me a lot of time and was very frustrating. It also did not matter if I used WEP or WPA etc....

Even the connection I tested from a normal PC with a WL100G would not work reliably. Anoying that PC is my music pc and could not play a full CD over the network, stops in the middle.

So my gues it is the router, I am typing this on my couch with the same laptop but a 11b Linksys AP.

As I said a pity, I liked this router and features.

I use voip for my telephone. Everything worked great with firmware 1.9.2.7 3. But with 1.9.2.8 beta the voip was unable to login the server. I changed the firmware back form 1.92.8 to 1.9.2.7 3 and I could call again and the voip is registred again. I use the same settings form both firmware's

you can not compare a custom firmware with a beta firmware, they do not carry the same functions

try firmware 1.9.2.7 to compare with firmware 1.9.2.8

perhaps using another channel would have helped you.. a lot of times it has been proven that channels below 7 can cause problems
