Well, if your router behaves similarly to mine then I wouldn't exactly call that a weird thing. After all, you'd expect these things to behave the same regardless of ownership, right?

I'm sorry, I probably should have specified that it was a WRT54G v6 router. It has the latest firmware so there'd be no point in flashing it...
...Although, now that you mention it, I went to the website to take a second look. I made the mistake of following the instructions on the website and looked up the current firmware for the product in my country. As it turns out, if you look at the American site, there is a more recent firmware version. So, do I use that or is my router somehow made specifically for my country?
