Patching For The Inevitable

Installed a new firmware on the router at chez Oesediez today.
No doubt it is already old & owned even before I installed it.

New Router (Now With DHCP!)

So, last December, my WBR-2310 router died, forcing me to go back to the D-Link DIR-601, which was already, really, really beat-up and performing not so well.
A new router was in order, almost mandatory, and the chosen one was a Netgear WNR2000v5.
Configured to spec even during the holidays, withouth the actual LAN to test it, and replaced the aging D-Link DIR-601 without any issue once I got home.
The main difference with the prior setup was that I had to move my LAN setup to DHCP, in order to be able to use the Roku, but then again, using the DHCP reservations proved to work A Ok so far, so I didn't even change the fixed IP addresses of all the boxes on the LAN.
