Hi there guys. New on this forum so I would like to take the chance to say hello to all of you.
I own a Asus WL500gP with the default Asus software on it and have a little issue with it. I bought a wireless printer (HP 4600 something) and all things nice till I printed the first time. What's interesting is that after I send the wireless print command the first time (and it worked - it printed out the pages), all HTTP requests from all the computers within the wireless networks are down. The router simply refuses to operate http requests. Other services as instant messaging still work (cause I was logged onto Yahoo Messenger when it happened and the messenger kept working).
I have had this problem with the router to stop sending/receiving http requests before, but only when I dealt with large amounts of data via FTP (not its default server but a random server from the Internet). The behavior was similar. Pages would stop from loading until I rebooted the router.
Now, I tried to understand how to install Oleg's firmware, however it seems that I cannot locate the right firmware file (and I don't want to brick my router), and I cannot even get passed the first step of opening up a Telnet connection to the router, (C:\>telnet 192.168.1.1
Connecting To 192.168.1.1...Could not open connection to the host, on port 23: Connect failed) - although i don't remember disabling the telnet option from the web administrative pages (sincerely I can't even find that option in my router).
Any ideas / help in understanding why the router behaves like it does with the standard firmware, and eventually if Olegs firmware can help with this issue would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks beforehand
