I frequently find the nat table on my M1122 to be filled up resulting in
random things stopping working. I suspect it's the large number of
connections that DC++ has that simply timeout on the PC. I saw similar
behaviour at a mates place on there dse router.

Is there a way to see what entries are in the nat table on any consumer
grade routers and to set them to not expire ones on certain ports etc? I
think this may explain why my ssh sessions that are untouched for hours
close when I try to use them again after coming back.

A few spring to mind:

* Not having to save & reboot the router when changing options
(specifically to ppp options really - I wanted to make the change, then
reboot the unit to go back to the "saved" settings)

* Bigger NAT cache - I was easily able to push the unit over by having
too many simultaneous web requests (this was from one connected machine)

* Pinhole routing to work.

* Firmware upgradable via non-windows O/S's

* If the web interface says port 80 is only open to the internal net, I
shouldn't be able to find an open port 80 on the internet ...

/My 2c worth.

For the record - I was using firmware rel9v3 - so some of the issues
above may have been solved, however I took the easier option of getting
an internal modem in a machine instead.

Cheers,
Wazza.
