Bricked after I year of use.......2007-04-21
Anybody knows a way to revive it?

Go buy something else .......2005-08-01
Yesterday my (read "this") router broke down. The same way the others here (like Eric L Carson) etc reported. Two lights red. Two lights green.
The router does what it says, but it obviously comes with a lifespan which is only slightly longer than the warranty period. When i pay for something, i want it to work for at least a while beyond the warranty period (given that i take good care of it). This one obviously doesn't.
Now i have to go hunting for a new one...
Worked fine for a couple years.......2005-05-29
Now the Status and Print Err lights remain red (I never had a printer connected to it), and the Power and Print Act lights remain green, and any ports with computers connected just flash slowly. I tried holding in the reset button for a long time, and I even tried letting is sit completely unplugged for a few days, then resetting again, but it is still dead.
I have my router and cable modem connected to my UPS, and there were no power problems the day, so I don't think it was a power surge that caused it to die.
I see that one other person had this exact same problem. I would love to know what the problem is, so contact me if you have an idea (It's pretty simple to find my web site).
Fortunately, I already had another good router (3rd brand) to replace it with, so I'm still online. And I just bought an additional router (4th brand), at a very good sale price, to have as a backup.
Buyer Be Aware: Warranty not honored if purchased online.......2004-06-16
2 strikes and your out.......2003-11-03
The FIRST one I bought, after about 2 weeks, it started acting up, looking like it reset itself, but when that happened, no private machines could hit the public side. Needed a power-cycle to fix about every 8 hours. If I let it go on like that long enough (like overnight whilst sleeping--I know, what good sysadmin ever sleeps right?? lol), it would blow the whole LAN AND WAN, public AND private and NONE of my servers would then be accessible from ANYWHERE.
So I called Siemens, they said go ahead and exchange it where I bought it, so I did.
So here is the second one. Running great up until last Friday (about 6 months or so) when we had a power failure that was long enough to drain all the UPS backups, and the computers shutdown fine and all.
When the power came back on, the Power and PrintAct lights were green and the Status and Print Err lights red, (no printer hooked up to the printserver port) and with any comps hooked up to the switch ports, it would just continually cycle the lights through each port. NO ACCESS between ANY machines.
So now Im back on the 701 till I can find a GOOD KNOWN name brand (D-link, Linksys or 3com($$$ouch$$$) that has 100 on BOTH sides.
BIC should buy Siemens and sell these things right along side their disposable razors and lighters. For $30, thats about what it is. I am NOT taking this one back. Im donating it to BFI for landfill use. The wall-wart power supply may come in handy somewhere though...lol

SIEMENS: Stick to your DSL modems! You obviously cant make routers...
