RV082 Firmware v1.3.3.4 Release Note

There are two firmware systems used by RV082. One is firmware v1.3.x which uses the newer Intel CSR1.2.2. The other is firmware v1.1.x which uses the original Intel CSR1.1. The look and feeling are quite similar, however, the v1.3.x firmware provides more features and better performance than v1.1.x. For example, the NAT firewall throughput has reached 200Mbps (bi-directional wire speed) and the IPSec throughput (3DES) has a maximum over 90Mbps. You can upgrade or downgrade the firmware on your RV082 device whenever you want. But like before, downgrading firmware will restore the configuration settings to factory default.

New Features:
1. Support Bandwidth Management, a feature already exists in RV016. Note: Since a new tab "Bandwidth Management" is inserted to the menu bar, the tabs "Restart" and "Setting Backup" are pushed to the "More >>" page.

2. Support NAT-Traversal on both Gateway-to-Gateway and Client-to-Gateway modes.

3. Support Custom DNS, a paid service provided by dyndns.org. A Custom DNS checkbox is added on the Setup -> DDNS -> DynDNS.org page.

4. RV082 will listen to port 443 and port 60443 for QuickVPN connection. Remark: The earlier firmware listens to port 443 only.

5. Support SNMP Cold-start, Warm-start, Link-up and Link-down traps.

6. Change the DHCP Server implementation. When the DHCP client requests the IP address of DNS server, RV082 will offer the DNS server address obtained from ISP. (In previous firmware, RV082 offers the DNS server address as RV082s LAN IP.)

Fixes:
1. Add "linksys.com" as the default Domain Name and leave Host Name to be blank after a reset to Factory Default.

2. Restrict the Dynamic IP Range in DHCP Server Configuration to be in accordance with the LAN IP and Subnet Mask of RV082. 
For Example, when LAN IP/Mask = 192.168.1.1/255.255.255.128, the DHCP IP Range user can configure will be restricted in the range of 192.168.1.1 through 192.168.1.126. 

3. Fixed a PPTP Server problem that failed to establish PPTP connection when DMZ Host was enabled. 

4. Fixed an issue with saving a pre-shared key with an apostrophe.

5. Disallow user to configure RV082s LAN IP address to be a broadcast IP address (x.x.x.0.)

6. Add an alert message if user configure Send SNMP Trap to:__ as a non-IP address.

7. Modified the alert message when Remote Management is enabled.
(1) When https enabled, remote management enabled, and password = admin, the pop-up message will read:
The Router is currently set to its default password. As a security measure, you must change the password before the Remote Management feature can be enabled. Press "OK" to change your password, or press "Cancel" to leave the Remote Management feature disabled. 
(2) When https disabled, remote management enabled, and password = admin, the pop-up message will read:
Please be warned that once remote management is enabled, it will be  more secure to remotely administer the router via https via port 443 instead of http. The Router is currently set to its default password. As a security measure, you must change the password before the Remote Management feature can be enabled. Press "OK" to change your password, or press "Cancel" to leave the Remote Management feature disabled. 

8. Update the on-line help of VPN Client Access (Quick VPN) to explain the two versions of firmware of RV082. The default version supports 15 QuickVPN clients, whereas the q50 version supports 50 clients.

9. Fix the subnet mask issue. Remark: When the routers subnet mask has been set to 255.255.255.192, you will no longer be able to change the subnet back to 255.255.255.0. For example, suppose you change the subnet mask from 255.255.255.0 to 255.255.192 and save the settings. You then want to change the subnet mask back to 255.255.255.0. You select it from the Subnet Mask drop-down box. Every time you click the Save Settings button, error DHCP IP Address Range conflict with the LAN IP will appear, and it will not allow you to change it.
