If they're offering it in your area, yes. Not sure where you live, but from what I understand it isn't available everywhere in Korea as of yet.

Well I have the new VDSL, and I get 10Mb to 13Mb from the local ftps here in Korea (both ways), and around 6-8Mb when downloading from newsgroups in the states. I'm quite happy with the speed, better than anything any of my friends in the states get. The U.S. is so far behind when it comes to...

You can go either way. The only reason I set the router to static IP is because the KT DHCP server renews the lease every hour and in the past it would temporarily disconnect me from certain programs like MSN messenger and IRC.

For anyone else here in Korea with KT VDSL and the Linksys; For now, our Linksys is either a paperweight or switch. brodyb is correct about the 10Mb WAN poer...I got the US Robotics router and it works like a charm. For the price, ($65), you can't beat it.

Did you buy this thing at Yongsan? I called both the PX here, and the BX down at Osan, and both tell me the only model they sell is the USR8000A, not 02(and both places are out of stock). I did a search on the web for the 02, and can't find it anywhere. Even the USR site doesn't have that...

One more quick question....which model US Robotics router did you buy? I just checked Mwave.com, and the only model they offer is the Model: USR8000A but according to the specs: Specifications and Standards One RJ-45, 10 Mbps Ethernet WAN port So this may not be the correct one.

Oops, silly me, thinking I could just go over and grab one. All sold out with no clue when they'll get some more in....Figures.

"go to the PX and get a new Robotics router (it works, I tried it)." As in-The Robotics router acts like a firewall again, just like our Linksys? Are the settings pretty much the same, i.e. router is 192.168.1.1 or did you have to assign the IP from the DHCP server? If it really...

Just an update...the reply I got back from Linksys didn't sound too promising. I was basically told to check their website periodically for any updates. No answer to my question if they were aware of and working the issue. Still hoping though.

Hmmm I wonder if the "Network Cable Unplugged" error is a XP thing. I have a VDSL modem which is connected to a Linksys switch (my router won't work with VDSL, but that's another issue), and I get that "Network Cable Unplugged" all the time. Except in my case, I don't seem...

I just sent the below to support@linksys.com. Maybe if we start "bugging" them, they'll look into this issue. Hi, I'm curious if your support team is working on a firmware upgrade for VDSL support on the BEFSR41 router. Please refer to the below link...

Hmm, didn't see you on the Yongsan global. But, I think you're right, by running the router that way you lose the firewall protection, which was the main reason I got it. I went to the PX and bought a Linksys 4 port switch. I hook the cable from the modem to the switch, then hook up both...

Odd...I tried your methods from your original post and it didn't work for me, but I'll try again tonight after work. One thing that occured to me las tnight while i was helping a friend set his router up with regular ADSL....his KT ADSL modem requires a crossover cable between modem and router...

I, on the other hand need the speed more although I'd sure like to get my router back on line. I'm not sure what you mean by choke. My speed within Korea is still 10-13Mb both ways, but I have noticed a dramatic decrease in my speed to the states..especially in the afternoon after work. I...

That's interesting...you say your VDSL works with that router when you hook it to the uplink port? I may try that when I get home from work tonight and then play with the settings. Tell me, how did you set everything up? Did you set your router for the 192.168.1.1 and your Computer to...
