Thank you for your response. After I posted here, I went over to the GRC
group and saw mixed results on the upgrade.

 Have you noticed any improvements with interface, stability or anything?

I've already downloaded and unzipped, just haven't installed yet. I looked
over the ver.txt file, here is what it says about the firmware:

Firmware Date : October 24,2001
Current Firmware : Version 1.40.2
Product PartNo : BEFSR11/BEFSR41/BEFSRU31

Ver #. Date Description

    2. Fixed traceroute problem under router mode(traceroute can not
                                   find out the Linksys router)
