David, 

I believe that the packet dump on Safari 2.0.4 was while performing the exact
same action as the previous two, but I can try it again to be sure. It won't be
until tomorrow as I have to borrow a laptop that has 2.0.4 on it.

In terms of contacting the company, I work for Aliant and have been working
with the technical support group on this. We did some testing with Safari v3
for windows, to confirm the issue. We then contacted Siemens Canada regarding
the error, and unfortunately their response was simply 'we don't support macs',
and they don't support Safari for windows either. I am also in the process of
trying to get in touch with a contact at Bell Canada, as they are a partner ISP
and use the same router model as us, but with a firmware branded for them. From
my understanding, it's the same basic underlying firmware, however slightly
modified for each ISP. I have yet to hear back on that front.

I understand how hard it can be to troubleshoot without having direct access to
the router. I have tried playing around with port forwarding to enable you to
log into the router by 'bouncing' it off one of the internal macs (as the
router does not support direct remote admin) but haven't had any luck getting
that working (I'm not that familiar with port/ip forwarding via ipfw/netd). 

Would it be of any use if I set up a VNC connection to a guest account that had
access to the router? Let  me know, as this would not be a problem.

Regards,
Tim
