Firmware v1.9.3.5 BETA

[Antiloop]

WARNING: BETA VERSION
TRY AT YOUR OWN RISK!

DO NOT UPGRADE UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING
DOWNGRADE IS NOT EASILY POSSIBLE!!

Changelog:

Fix 10 problems:
1. P2P networks causing lost of connectivity due to limited number of connections which firewall is keeps tracking (1024 by default)
2. Missing timezones at least for Australia, Azores Islands.
3. Radius authentication does not work.
4. Client mode does not work as expected: could not access internet in client mode.
5. Idle timeout and Tx only does not work with PPPoE.
6. Encryption WPA-PSK AES and WEP, WEP functions like it should but WPA-PSK AES does not function right.
7. WDS using WPA encryption does not function. No connection is established.
8. Bandwidth management page treat rate values as kilobytes, not kilobits.
9. WAN DHCP IP renewal does not work correctly with some ISP configurations, connections get dropped due to reacquiring of IP address.
10. Internal ftp server does not truncate files before overwriting, resulting in corrupted file if newer file is smaller than old one.

important!!

When upgrading from 1.7.x.x based firmware: you MUST Reset your WL500g to defaults via the restore button at the back after upgrading to this firmware!

you do not have to do this when you upgrade from 1.8.x.x based firmware!
but we RECOMMEND you to do a restore to defaults.

Do not import saved settings from older/other firmwares! this can cause unstability to your device

Hi.

I installed firmware 1.9.3.5 and found out that "Setting Management->Save As a File" is not working, I get a zero-length file every time.

Now a DNS question: is it possible to configure DNS entries for the local, privately addressed hosts of my home network?

Thanks.

Hello,

for me, it´s impossible to connect ISP (T-Online/Germany) with FW 1.9.3.5. I don´t know where the problem is, any ideas?
