There is new worm which specifically attacks your router on the local network. MAKE SURE YOU USE A STRONG PASSWORD!!

For more details see: http://www.dronebl.org/blog/8 .

I will add a detection to Router Control v1.1 looking for the symptoms (administration ports going offline).

Since I am not a fan of blogging gossip I want to try a new way to provide more feedback on the development status of Router Control v1.1: Twitter.

A Twitter widget was added to the Router Control homepage or you can use the link directly: http://twitter.com/RouterControl .

In the future I will post some news whenever there is some progress worth mentioning. Please feel free to check out this new feature.

Sam Wood recognized that .NET 3.5 is distributed via Windows Update on all Windows Server 2003 – including Windows Home Server.

Because of this the Router Control v1.1 CTP2 will be based on .NET 3.5 which will provide a more reliable backend communication using WCF (instead of WSE3).

I am happy to announce the first preview version of Router Control v1.1 (which was known as v1.0.1.0 before).

Please feel free to test this version. It would be great if you activate the Error Reporting in the Advanced settings mode.
