I've had a DG834G running happily on it's original v1.03 code for several
months. One of the firewall rules I'd set up was an inbound rule that
basically duplicated the default inbound rule but logged the inbound
attempts (ie. the rule was Block Any(All) for All LAN address from All WAN
address with log on Match - the default rule is the same but with log on
Never). This worked absolutely fine with v1.03.
On upgrading to v1.05 I couldn't get any outbound traffic to work (eg. no
web browsing, newsgroup reading, email pick-up, etc.).
After 2 hours of head scratching checking everything I tracked it down to my
INBOUND rule (incidentally, its the only Inbound rule I have). For some
reason since upgrading to v1.05 this Inbound rule blocks all my Outbound
traffic. If I disable the rule (just untick the box) the router works as it
used to and I can browse, collect mail, etc. Re-enable this Inbound rule and
nothing works.
Surely this must be a bug?
If it is, does anyone know how to report it to Netgear?
Many thanks, David
