Notes:
1. MSN Video ALG only support with MSN 7.0 above and the default port (1863) should not be changed. 2. Bit Torrent ALG support following tools: BitComet 0.58, BitSpirit v3.1.0, BitLord 1.1, G3 Torrent v0.9999, Aeureus 2.3.0.4, BitTornado T-0.3.12 3. IEEE 802.11N support 3Tx3R 4. Portable GUI support safari browser on ipod series. 5. Support 32 WLAN STAs at the same time. 6. The default value of Channel Width change to 20 MHz on wireless page 7. NBG460N/NBG420N doesn't support high data rate in TKIP and WEP encryption. 8. WPA/WPA2 can't work through WDS if two DUTs are both in the router mode. 9. WLAN Scheduling--> WLAN delay about 1m30s to up or down. It didn't on time 10. If the V3.60(AMX.4) series firmware is uploaded on the DUT. you cant load the AMX.3 , AMX.2, AMX.1, AMX.0. series. 11. IEEE 802.11n draft standard does not approve the WEP and TKIP security modes, so the wireless speed for these two modes may revert back to 802.11g. To guarantee 802.11n wireless speed, please only use WPA2 security mode (or no security at all, although not recommended).

Known Issues:
1. 2. 3. 4. NetBIOS traffic between WAN & LAN would be blocked if firewall was enabled. Delete the trigger port rule wont take effect immediately, they work until aged out. Your device will encounter errors if you upload the game list file with wrong formats. For example, too long text in a single line of the game list file. You may need to restart your device to let Bandwidth Management traffic control on the direction To WAN take effect.

You may get a lower performance if you have turned on the Bandwidth Management feature with any active rules. Bandwidth management rule doesnt work if quick engine is enabled. When IP is assigned by DHCP server in AP mode, wired external registrar(Vista) cant find DUT WAN IP cant be updated by unplugging Ethernet cable. Please reboot device when changing connection to other ISP. Disable IGMP snooping by channel enhancement for side effect caused by this enhancement WLAN multicast cant work for more than 1 hour with stream size larger than 6mbps. WLAN MBM cant work when enable WDS with AP+Bridge mode DUT's WEP key showed disorder number via External Registrar(Vista OS) setup to WEP key The time is too long when upload firmware from 3.60(AMX.4) to 3.60(AMX.5) by GUI. Dont change the Web page to other pages when the GUI is uploading firmware.
