Where to go for Nexland firmware?

[KuRe]

It seems that Symantec has taken over Nexland, and now I cant find where to download the firmware at. Could someone please direct me?

[Ghosthunter]

wow you right http://www.nexland.com gets redirected to symantc

i am not sure yet give me some time to see if i can find it

Did you register your nexland? I received a letter from symantec with my access code to the "transitional nexland product page"

You get there and you have free 90 days support - including downloads. After that, you pay $48/year for Gold Support - the only level they offer.

They're a software company - they are used to licensing to supplement 'off the shelf' sales

wow that sux...
.now you have to pay for router firmware too?


I once considered upgrading my router to a Nexland..but I guess that changes my mind..
cause I sure as heck ain't paying for firmware..

my nexland has been causing me really bad problems as of late i have to reboot it 2-3 times a day

no clue what is goign on, been wroking great, solid for a year


i think it might be time to go to linksys new g model, i hear really good things about it

Thats the same exact reason I'm looking for new firmware! It seems that I have to reset the router just to begin surfing the internet after waking up, and then again later. Whats going on

After some searching on various forums, I have found that the Nexland FTP site is still up. If you want your firmware, download it quick, before it goes down.

ftp://ftp.nexland.com/pub/firmware/

I also believe that a person has put the firmware on his site also.

Hope this helps!

It's tough to image Symantec will not further support Nexlands routers after the buyout.

I'll see if I can find out.

Thanks I now recognize the one I have currently is 5y

I see there is one more for soho, the 6N, but it does not say what it fixes. Not sure if it will make things worst or better

Let me know if you find out anymore info

thanks

i updated to this version

V1 Rel 6N


which is the latest let you know if tha works at all

[Ghosthunter]

[Ghosthunter]

funny thing just got a letter today from symantec

saying that since they bought nexland they are offering exsiting nexland customers 90 day support after that you have to pay
