D-Link DSL-G604T worked out of the box. It is configured using a browser on http://192.168.1.1. I found that it occasionally does not save settings in Mozilla, but Konqueror is always OK. Built-in firewall (NAT) works well when tested from the Shields Up website. Mine came with a free cardbus wifi card (D-Link DWL-G650) which works well using ndiswrapper - see http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/phpwiki/index.php/InstallDebianSarge Chris. -- Chris Lale <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
