And, like the used one, it still takes down the network. This time, I used Firestarter to dig further. Firestarter blocked the following event ... PORT = 67 SOURCE = 0.0.0.0 [the culprit ?] PROTOCOL = UDP SERVICE = DHCP Wouldn't the above event conflict with some routers [192.168.0.xxx]? And, the following event ... PORT = <blank> SOURCE = 192.168.0.xxx [valid print server IP address not shown] PROTOCOL = ICMP SERVICE = Unknown [the culprit ?] Firestarter Preferences has ICMP Filtering enabled with ALL options checked. Any ideas?
