For a linksys product, AFAIK you can log in and change that stuff (port
forwarding) anytime. If theres a disturbance in the data flow, I haven't
noticed it.
Taharka: I got around to trying this, and everything seemed to be OK,
except I couldn't get out to the net. There's an additional page linked
to from that site, and I'll have to take a look, as it is for the
exceptions that don't just work. It turns out they had a section for my
DSL Modem, and I just missed that on first glance. One thing that's
seemingly disconcerting, is that you don't seem to be able to connect to
the DSL modem using the web address once you put in in bridge mode and
save. The only way I could get back was to reset the thing with the
hardware button, and that then forced me to go through the whole
registration process again with Verizon. But, I'm back to where I was.
