    Default I'm upgrading my router and had some problems

    I'm improving the computing environment here on Bimmer.info and have encountered a minor problem. Sounds like next try won't be till tonight. I thought replacing the aging router would be easy as pie, well pie ain't easy! Hang in there guys, sorry for the brief outage.

    A Bimmer Nut for sure: '04 530im (current daily driver), '97 m3, '98 323is, '99 Z3, '01 740iL, '06 330cicm zhp, '02 R1150R, '69 r60, Owner/Operator of www.Bimmer.info and www.BimmerNut.com
    And I still maintain: '90 535im (sold to daughters best friend, one of my favorite bimmers), '92 525im (daughters other best friend now drives this one).

    Router upgrades aren't that hard

    Just bung in a decent router like Linksys, put all your machines into DHCP mode in network settings, and bob's your uncle.

    If you need help, .. well, you won't be able to tell us, so good luck. Kinda like sending a email when the email server goes down. It just don't work.

    It's probably a cisco, and you will want to save your configs and copy paste them into the new router via serial or telnet. Don't use their java gui. It's crap.
