what setting do you have under dashboard – settings – reading – blog pages show at most [ ] posts?
try to set it to 5
I have it set to to 10 pages and still only shows 4.
Interesting I just changed it to 5 to check and sure enough it worked. Thanks for the simple fix, better than paying my web guy to do it. Is this a bug or is there a good reason why it does this?

assuming your front page has some custom query where the ‘posts_per_page’ is set individually to 5 posts per page, then the pagination code can have problems to find the right number of paginated pages to show if the general setting has a differnt number of posts per page;
I am no expert in this particlular field, but afaik, doing this with ‘pre_get_posts’ http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Action_Reference/pre_get_posts might work better; this also depends how the pagination is coded.
I just like to posts my blogs, that is about the extent of my expertise ha ha. Thanks again I will take a look at the link and see if it is a better fix.
