Thread: For people that use Cisco (linksys)

  1. Default For people that use Cisco (linksys)

    You may want to do a quick check on your router if it is Cisco owned. Cisco rolled out an automatic firmware update (most, if not all, were done without people knowing) that forces you to use a cloud based service. They are making it really difficult to downgrade but it can be done. Theres a fix for the EA4500, I don't know about the rest.

    If you want to downgrade: (For EA4500)

    "When you use the Service, we may keep track of certain information related to your use of the Service, including but not limited to the status and health of your network and networked products; which apps relating to the Service you are using; which features you are using within the Service infrastructure; network traffic (e.g., megabytes per hour); Internet history; how frequently you encounter errors on the Service system and other related information ("Other Information"). We use this Other Information to help us quickly and efficiently respond to inquiries and requests, and to enhance or administer our overall Service for our customers. We may also use this Other Information for traffic analysis (for example, determining when the most customers are using the Service) and to determine which features within the Service are most or least effective or useful to you. In addition, we may periodically transmit system information to our servers in order to optimize your overall experience with the Service. We may share aggregated and anonymous user experience information with service providers, contractors or other third parties to assist us with improving the Service and user experience, but any shared information will be consistent with Cisco's overall Privacy Statement and will not identify you personally in any way."


    Because of this, i'll never own anything Cisco related. Sure they won't identify me personally in any way... unless, you know, the government issues a subpoena.

    This is just one reason that I do not use automatic updating with anything. At most I just let it pre-download.
    Make all your last demands for I will forsake you and I'll meet your eyes for the very first time, for the very last.
