Very Frankly Speaking

So a couple weeks back I thought my freaking D-Link router was shot (not working).  I was having issues where I wasn’t able to login to the router administration.  It would keep returning this error message to me:  “The network connection seems to be down.”  I was very close to buying an Apple Time Machine for 500 bucks, but I’m glad I didn’t.  All it is is an issue with Firefox 3.  If you just try going to the webpage in a different browser like Safari or Internet Explorer, you shouldn’t get that message.  I was on the phone with D-Link tech support for quite a damn while and I’m suprised they’re not aware of this issue.  I tried to suggest to the nice Filipina call operator to take note of that, but I don’t think she really cared.
