I bought a wrt610n that is supposed to have a 30 day trial of Home Network Defender. The only way to configure HND is to install Network Magic Essentials or Pro which is a 7 day trial otherwise it reverts back to the Basic version which does not allow configuration of HND. Regular bait and switch unethical marketing. The only way to use the 30 day trial of HND is to PURCHASE NM.
ReplyDeletehow do I uninstall HMD
ReplyDeleteumm i banned my itouch but i uninstalled home network defender because my hard drive became fragmented and the screen doesn't pop up on the linksys cd to use homenetwork defender so i can't unban myself from my wifi network
ReplyDeletebullshit is the right word. No support whatsoever
ReplyDeletebullshit is right, no support whatsoever. I have a wrt610n Router. I started the Home network defender trail, It has now expired.
ReplyDeleteI have been trying to renew the subscription, within LELA, when I try it reruns an error message and I cannot go any further.
I then installed network magic, when go to purchase here it send me to a dead link within purenetworks. I tried going directly to pure networks to purchase the software/subscription but it is not listed for sale.
Linksys sends me to Trend Micro and Trend Miro sends me to Linksys?
I have removed LELA and Trend Micro from the system and have applied a hard reset to the router and started the whole process over, same results.
I have been transferred between tech support and sales with no answers.
It's a really nice information, I think that it's a realted blogs. it's a nice format of picture..
