When I did this, I had to update the firm ware in my router, I don't know
if it helps. also note, I have the bef11 or what ever the number is, and
put the forward from the 41 in there lol, funny it works better. Anyway,
could that be what the big problem is? maybe some one or a couple people
need a firmware update? it's not hard to do at all.
