Re: linksysdata.com gone

It's not enough for Linksys to kill the golden goose (WRT54G v1 - v4
with Linux) and replace it with an abortion (v5). Now, they removed
the only useful piece of information on their web pile:
http://www.linksysdata.com/ui/
This URL formely has simulations (emulations?) of all Linksys
products. I could tell what I was buying by looking at the available
options on the web based setup. I also used these pages to answer
many questions on Linksys configuration issues. Now, all I get is:

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /ui/ on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to
use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Hopefully, this is only a temporary failure, or adminstrative screwup.
I guess I get to spend the evening writing nastygrams.

Well, I just received a mostly boilerplate reply from
support@xxxxxxxxxxxx They claim that the site is accessible and
everything is working just fine. That might mean a firewall
configuration change, where the web site is now only accessible from
inside the Linksys network. Judging by the permissions error, this is
highly likely.

I'm seeing the same thing out here on the East coast. 403 permission error
on a 404 page.

The server configuration is apparently blocking access. Time to go slap the
webmaster around...
