Bypassing router

[synth3tk]

Glad to hear that your problem is solved! Also nice to know that it was good getting rid of my own D-Link. But yeah, anything electronic (or made by man for that matter) will always have some sort of limitation or malfunction. It's just how we are.

[threadjacking="blatant"] I might get that Linksys router that runs on open source software (Don't know the exact model number). I heard a lot of great things about it, so I'm hoping to give it a whirl. I hate the Wireless Gateway that's coming with my AT&T DSL order, though it's cheap and will get me through. Yea for 3.0MBps speeds! Although I would've gotten 6.0, but the apartment complex has one of those phone systems to buzz in guests, which limits speeds. [/threadjacking]

Yes I'm glad too, now I have to think of something to do to celebrate tonight and then start thinking about my next project

Sure anything can break but I really didn't know/think that routers could so easily "burn out" like this, and this unit still worked fine except during ftp uploads so that's why it was NOT a prime suspect early on. Sure learned something and that's good.
