Anyone else have DNS issues with this router? I seem to get a lot of "Invalid URL" errors, and sometimes the wrong page will load (ie.

, i type facebook.com and it redirects me to myspace.com). Any solutions or suggestions?

Well, friends don't let friends use Cisco routers, but since you already have one, try OpenDNS instead of your ISP. www.opendns.com/

I agree with rpgdgt.

Back in the day, linksys was good. But now a days, I lean more towards netgear.

I have that, never had a issue, ever. I haven't touched it since I connected it.

The latest firmware flash, Ver.3.0.03 Build 3, addressed this issue. I can confirm that after updating, I stop receiving DNS & redirect errors.

You can find the .bin here: homesupport.cisco.com­/en­-us­/wireless­/lbc­/WRT160N
(In the DL section of course.)
