Thank you James, you are exactly correct.
Maybe "Never" is a stretch and instead, "Not Always the Best Practice" would have been a more appropriate responce, but I do feel that it is realitive to these forums and is worth mentioning.
Can understand your moving on. My Netgear routers were the only ones I have owned where you could not just update and go on about your business. Linksys, Asus for two, there were no issue of having to reset and reconfigure after an update. Have had others as well. The other venders would put something on their site, where you downloaded the firmware, if you needed to do a reset for some major change in the firmware. I moved on to a vender, other then the listed two, and have never been happer. Not a consumer grade setup, separate router and AP's, but firmware updates never require a reconfiguration.
