A friend of mine who has SuSE 10.1 and a Linksys router (I think an older BEFSR41) is complaining that either the router or Linux is blocking traceroute. I have both SuSE 10.0 and SuSE 10.1 and a newer Linksys router and traceroute from my systems through the router work fine.
I know that he allows ICMP, and he can successfully ping other systems, but traceroute simply stops at the router. However he can successfully do a traceroute from a Windows box.
Maybe someone here has a clue.
Many months ago, I sent Linksys support an e-mail request concerning Model BEFSX41 dropping UDP data grams. They sent a firmware upgrade called "BEFSX41_v1.52.4_beta1_002_code". This resolved the problem for me. Good luck. ~James

This resolved the problem for me. I'll have him check on his firmware also. I don't know exactly what version he has (I was assuming the 4-port wired). And, traceroute works fine for me on my newer Linksys router with Linux.
