Hmm...seems to be screwed up firmware. What was the original reason for you to upgrade the firmware? IIRC there was some vulnerability in the original firmware but that could be exploited only if your router's configuration page was exposed to the internet.
V1.0 firmware Web administration did not display well on Firefox at all. Figure this one out - after some interaction with the box's webserver and Firefox, the performance would deteriorate to the point the thru put was worse than a POTS dial up connection.
V2.0 is an improvement in that respect but still buggy. It has a lot more features but who knows if they work at all when a basic rule like "Web Server" Virtual Server does not port forward to the defined IP# on the LAN and opens up the admin page on the WAN port leaving uninitiated users vulnerable?
I had even written a personal letter about 502t's QA to Mr. Naik, MD DLink India (after a few frustrating sessions with their Tech. Support in Malad) but guess what - never heard back from him let alone an acknowledgement.
