So, Shall I dispense with the UserAgent Request and run it through lower level code? >:-{ (Defeating the purpose of UserAgent) (Not a satisfactory solution)

OR

Use the filename method and use a 'length of file (= length of response)' test before assuming that UserAgent error response is valid (i.e. rebuild the response->content from the collected file copy if response is not 'too short'? (A workable patch - maybe)

OR

Get LinkSys to check their disconnect logic? (Not likely)

Start debugging lower layers? (Well, that's the same as the first idea (Not a satisfactory solution - and no guarantee of success.

Guess I'll put in a response (in file) length test to validate UserAgent error - bleearghr ;)

Unless someone can help me with the lower level stuff.

{"Why don't you do it in Perl?" - Well, one has to start somewhere! ;))) }
