Yeah, they're like that. I also find the Cisco website confusing and hard to navigate. Stuffy vendors...pffft. Consequently, I shifted my SMB router needs to Adtran - 5 year warranty standard and free unlimited phone support and design assistance.

I suspect you'll need to purchase a SmartNet contract to get IOS image access. But, locate a Cisco partner using the locator on the Cisco website and discuss your options. One may be nice...



P.S. Backup router firmware first thing out of box...
