I can't believe I am the only one with this problem. It is impossible for me to read the 'my threads link'. Any chance the filename could be changed? m y m s g s.png is the problem. Even just posting that filename without the spaces black holes me.

Have you tried contacting Netgear? Sounds like their problem.

Sorry to hear that. I'm not sure changing the filename would even solve that. Could it be ad blocking software and seeing it as some kind of ad?

Does the router's firmware require an update?

It's the way the router tries to prevent users getting around blocked IM ports. As a secondary blocking mechanism it looks for keywords. If it sees m y m s g s in the URI it totally blocks the page. Found a solution in another place, which suggests adding a rule to ALLOW the banned name. Haven't tried it yet but it's one for the record, i.e. some routers blocking keywords: could drive webmasters crazy if visitors say "can't access a page"

If it were me, I would report that as a bug to Netgear. It sounds like their "solution" is buggy.
