  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Installed (after doing the filename switcheroo), reset router to default, and it locked up all of my "b" Airport laptops (3). Downgraded to previous version 1.50.14 and all was well. I hate when version details aren't included, but it was my fault for blindly upgrading. The previous version works great. Downloader Beware. -M

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Tried several times with 3 different browsers. I get the failed to upgrade message. Router is working fine. Date on this upgrade says 4/07. This could be an old upgrade.

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />I upgraded to this from the firmware that shipped (1.45.3). The upgrade worked just fine in Firefox 1.0.1 on OS X 10.3.8, and took around 30 seconds. (I connected to the router via ethernet) It adds quite a few bug fixes and new features - the most useful for me is WPA and the flashing of the 'Wireless-B' light on the front, when there is WiFi activity. I got a brand-new user interface too (although this was also present in 1.50), which is MUCH easier to use, with some handy setup hints. I'm connected to it right now over WiFi with my PowerBook and Airport Extreme card, with WPA enabled. Great, and very worthwhile update!
