Default Asus WL-500W problems

Is there anyone with experience from Asus WL-500W router?
We recently bought one and can't get all the features working.

The Download Master don't work correctly, everyone can access the ftp-server but not the selected users and only some can write to it. And we can't access the unit from network places.

Hi--- Nothing is ever as easy as advertised...
There are probably a number of config setttings with firewalls/browsers/wireless cards.
TheDownload Master is for use with an external hardddrive.

If you go to this page:

ASUSTeK Computer Inc.-Support-

There is all manner of information/downloads/troubleshooting info

Hello Lyxell. So that we may help you better, We will need more information. Things like how your network is arranged. Do you have a dedicated server? Are you running a firewall? Is it a software or hardware firewall? How are you administrating the network? The more info you can provide the better we can help. Friend Ih8bills was quite correct. The major portion of problems with a router and network is in the configuration. This I say from experience. I setup my own network with a dedicated web/ftp/chat server. I spent more than a week chasing config problems.

I spent more than a week chasing config problems.
No offense intended... but it's like a dog chasing it's own tail-- you fix one with the router itself it creates another issue which creates 2 more with the firewall software on the PC's... it is not impossible. it IS frustrating + time consuming.

Jot down changes you make to what... +when
see reactions
try another adjustment--
do the same.

This is why IT network techs for large companies ... are constantly busy.
