I've occasionally gotten disconnects from certain apps but not others - Firefox works when Counter-Strike doesn't, or Xfire, or something like that. I thought that I should probably update the firmware, seeing as how it's still whatever it was out of the factory. So I downloaded the WRT54G v.2 firmware update from linksys.com, and I ran it. It looked okay, hitting 1% in like a few seconds, but...it reset to 0% and said "unable to get responses from server". Now, I thought that this might have something to do with ZoneAlarm, so I added the updater to the program control list as "allow all", and it still doesn't work. Suggestions, anyone? I'd really appreciate the help...as you can see, the update itself hasn't even begun yet, or the router really wouldn't be working. Thanks!
