==HTTP & HTTPS Interception/spoofing (when router offline)==
====Issue Description====
If the router loosesloses its internet connection (e.g. drops sync, drops ppp) then it will intercept web page requests and will forward them to itself. This is meant to be 'helpful' in that the router will then have a page telling the user that internet is down etc. However, as it also intercepts https traffic this will cause certificate warnings in the browser which will alarm and the user and is much less useful.
 
Also discussed here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/577633/suspicious-ssl-certificate
None yet.
 
==LowLong PADI retry time==
====Issue Description====
When PPP or sync drops, the router will need to reconnect. Once in sync, the router will send a PADI packet to start the process of logging back in. It seems the router sends a PADI every 100 seconds or so. This causes unnecessary delay in reconnecting. -ourOur FireBrick product, for example, will start ofoff trying every 100 miliseconds before it starts backing off to every 2 seconds and then a maximum of every 10 seconds. We've asked ZyXEL for more information on the PADI retry and if it can be made to try more often than every 100 secndsseconds.
