When I first got the box, it was getting heated and resetting every
5 mins. After upgrading the firmware, the heat issue is solved, but
it still resets (diag LED goe red) but now, every 15 mins. 3x progress!

The thing that I'm concerned about most is my inability to use ssh
to login to a box behind this linksys firewall.

This could also be related to something going wrong at my broadband
ISP: sprint broadband at the same time. In less than a minute after
I login via ssh, the session freezes. The only way out is to kill
the window running ssh.

When the linksys box hangs, I find that ping doesn't work, however,
my wireless card's "link test" still finds the card. So I'm thinking
the problem is in the network layer and not the data link layer.

It's quite possible that this is due to linksys's firmware bugs, so
I was reluctant to swap the hardware. Now I'm annoyed enough to
actually try it out.

I'd love to hear about other similar experiences.
