Compatibility

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.broadbandnet.hardware (More info?)

I would just update the firmware, as Mike suggested with the URL. On
Windows XP, you don't need the front-end software to administer the base
station. You can do that by going to your base station IP in your browser.

BTW - the "incompatibility" is between the old front-end software and SP2,
not the router's firmware.
