Aolynk WDR814g

The Aolynk WDR814g is a ADSL2+ capable wireless router.

It has a number of interesting features built-in such as a DHCP server, support for UPnP, firewall capabilities, DynamicDNS client capabilities and more.

Notes on firmware version “V1.00.15beta.1   Feb. 1, 2005  15:39:35”

• The UPnP seems to work quite well (tried it with Azureus) but there are still some kinks to be ironed out such as not cleaning up the assignments table after the connection is terminated and giving out information on the whole table, regardless of each entry being enabled or disabled;
• DynamicDNS support is not quite all there yet. It seems not to support protocol 2 of the [DynDNS.org)[http://dyndns.org/] service (which I use);
• The list of connected wireless clients is always empty, regardless of the number of clients actually connected;
• The logs are sparse and rather uninteresting. there is no detail on packets dropped from the WAN port, for example, only the indication that they where dropped;
• The data collected via SNMP seems to be mostly OK, except for the reported speed on the interfaces. No matter what speed I connect to my ADSL line or switch ports (10MBPS ou 100MBPS) I always have the same value for all of them (100MBPS).
