I appreciate everyones comments on this.
I am total turned off on Netgear products now. Between something as simple as this and the fact that there solutions to setting up share drives is to either give everyone the admin password or just give everyone access to everything I have concluded that their developers are less capable than a 5 year old who just learned what a compter is. It blows me way that that a $300 Netgear router as less functionality than a $50 Linksys router (and that in a day when security is more important than ever that they would release a product this poorly designed). This wil be the first and last NEtgear product that I ever own.
And a note on support... You call, they say open a ticket on line so you do, then they update they ticket and ask you to call them. When you call they ask you when you would like them to call you back.which they "say" they will do within 36 hours of your "good callback time". you then have a 50/50 chance of them calling back or just closing the ticket.
Bravo Netgear!!
