xr500 RIP? Where is the SPI and NAT? Borrowed Linksys Gui? No SSH/Telnet?


Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

So I purchased this XR500 based on the understanding that there was NAT support and SPI built into the firewall but I can't seem to find any configuration option other than old school vulnerability based RIP protocol?

I am a bit surprised at how different the feature set is from what's offered on your R1 router and also the striking resembalance in the GUI as well as feature sets, page layout etc., is to the stock linksys firmware. I am a bit taken a back at by how crude this router feature set is for how it's marketed, the fact core marketed features are missing or simply not there and the almost outright "borrowing" of the Linksys Gui down to text itself.

 

Also, I can't SSH or Telnet into the router?
