I took off my linksys 3000E and put on a Buffalo only because one of the Lan ports on the rear of the router was shaky. I knew that the pure network stuff was in the tank. It still works however with the things which have always been connected to it. Here it is a year after the start and I just realize that my NetworkMagic is defunct. So once again is there a program that will do what Network Magic did, work with any router, and not a brand specific modem or router?
Like I would now buy another product they offer. However they would gladly sell me their newest router that would have all the features of Network Magic in it. I was told that Network Magic is dead, servers shut down for good. So buying Linksys newest router would not help at all. However my current ISP requires that I use their modem/router. Long and short is Linksys only wants every one to buy their newest routers. i had a fairly rude and thoroughly uncaring agent name Pablo. I spent part of this evening with Support of Linksys. I really don’t want to start over with something else, very inconvenient. I will definitely file a complaint with Cisco and hope it helps us resolve this. Seems wrong that I’m not able to continue using what I paid for. I was also searching for the download and frustrated to find they’ve discontinued it. Or make it public domain, I don’t care, I just want my network magic to run.
If enough of us complain we may just get them to come up with an open registration, just put in a serial number and off you go.
Get rid of one and replace it, on the same router, and you were within the limits the software set. There wasn’t even a restriction on how many computers you could install it on, only a limit of 8 on your router. No time limit, no limits on how long you could use it, and no restriction on reinstalling. Point out that, when you bought it the only restriction was, 8 computers with NM on your router at one time. When they tell you they no longer support it, tell them you don’t want support, just let you use it. I suggest anyone who has network magic and needs to validate it do what I am going to do. When software is no longer supported by the publisher it’s called abandonware.
