1332335 2013-03-12 08:37:00 So got the new router/modem installed. Noticed a definite improvement in internet reliability, but am still having issues, including computers being able to access it, but mobile devices not, and then the occasional temporary dropout (which fixes itself), and the reasonably infrequent total dropouts, which require a router + modem reset. Where to go from here? Nick G (16709)

The Draytek/TP Link combo you recommended on your blog :) - still running stock firmware, not gargoyle.

1332339 2013-03-12 22:21:00 And when you flash it make sure you use the latests 1.5.9 firmware, the earlier stuff (below 1.5..7) causes a brick on the later versions of the 1043, I found out the fun way :D The Error Guy (14052)

So the firmware could be causing the connection issues?

1332341 2013-03-12 23:23:00 Absolutely!

Just make sure to read the guide thoroughly though. As mentioned the 1.10 hardware revision has issues with older firmwares...

1332343 2013-03-29 21:29:00 So, I've downloaded the firmware,and have plugged my laptop into the ethernet. When I try to upgrade the firmware though, it says 'please chose a file to upgrade'. What am I doing wrong? Nick G (16709)
1332344 2013-03-29 21:31:00 Unzip / add the firmware update you downloaded. So it can update it Speedy Gonzales (78)
