    Brand new RT-N66U - wireless connection problems

    I brought the USB stick home and plugged it into my wife's laptop and it connected right away. I disabled the internal wireless adapter, so there's no conflict, and it seems to have done the trick for her. Unfortunately I am still having issues with my iPhone 4S. When I'm upstairs it...

    Brand new RT-N66U - wireless connection problems

    Actually, even though it's pretty old, it's running Windows 7. I didn't think about the dual band thing, but that makes sense. I've got a USB wireless stick at work that I'll bring home tomorrow and see if I can connect with that instead of her built-in wireless.

    Brand new RT-N66U - wireless connection problems

    So I checked and her laptop is using the most current wireless drivers. I tried a bunch of things to get it connected to the wireless network and it does connect, but it says "No Internet Access", and that's not going to work. I manually added the 5ghz network, but it doesn't show up as a...

    Brand new RT-N66U - wireless connection problems

    I'm at work now, so can't check the version, but I know it updated the firmware as soon as I completed the internet setup. I went to the ASUS website and checked, and it was the the most recent version of the firmware. I will check the wireless driver for my wife's laptop, thanks for the...

    Brand new RT-N66U - wireless connection problems

    I just got a new RT-N66U to replace an old Linksys router. I setup the new router in my server closet where I have my cable modem, home server, etc. Same place I had the old Linksys. What I'm experiencing is the wireless signal is extremely unreliable on the new router. I'm sure it's some...

    No, haven't contacted support yet, but I guess that's my next step. Thanks!

    NS4300N: Rebuilding File System for 5 days now...

    I had a problem where my NS4300N RAID wasn't visible in the network. So I shut it down and restarted it, but I still couldn't see it. So I went into the PASM and it showed the yellow mark on the RAID volume. I went into the "File System Management" and clicked the "Rebuild File System"...

    Need to extend wireless range of DIR-655

    Thanks Tim, I'll read through that article you linked to. Can I just confirm I understand what you're saying: I would leave the current gigabit switches and have my non-wireless devices connected to those. Then set up one of the old Buffalo routers as an AP and plug it in wherever I need...

    Need to extend wireless range of DIR-655

    I just changed my router from an old Buffalo WRT-G54S router to the D-Link DIR-655. The reason I upgraded was to provide gigabit connections to all wired devices throughout the network. I do stream media, including high-def video, throughout the house, but only using the wired network. I used...

    Promise Comments: Quieting Down the Promise SmartStor NS4300N and NS4300N Review!

    Of course I know you're right, just haven't been able to scrape together the funds to have another 4TB backup. No excuse, but given the amount of data, it's tough to keep a completely redundant set of drives running. Luckily though, I woke up this morning and everything was back t the way it...

    Promise Comments: Quieting Down the Promise SmartStor NS4300N and NS4300N Review!

    Well, I upgraded the firmware to R5 yesterday, and at first it seemed to be working great. But I had the issue where the BT service stopped, but in this case I couldn't restart it. Then the FireFly service stopped and I couldn't restart that either. So I sent a support request in to Promise...

    Promise Comments: Quieting Down the Promise SmartStor NS4300N and NS4300N Review!

    PromiseNasDude, are you ever coming back? Last time you posted here was over a month ago... It's been a few months now since you first let us know about the exchange for quieter NS4300N units and I was just wondering, what's the status of these new improved/quiet units? Also, any idea...

    Promise Comments: Quieting Down the Promise SmartStor NS4300N and NS4300N Review!

    Ok, no worries. One other thing I forgot to mention: if I can't set up an alias for video, can I just edit some config file so that the video share for DLNA is pointing to a different folder on the NAS? This wouldn't pick up all of my video, but at least I would have a large percentage of my...

    Promise Comments: Quieting Down the Promise SmartStor NS4300N and NS4300N Review!

    That would be awesome, thanks! I don't remember when I got it right now... I know I downloaded and installed the DLNA plugin when it was first released, as I usually do all of the updates and plugins, and haven't been able to make much use of it due to this issue of having video in other...

    One other question: Anyone know if it's possible to get SwissCenter installed on the NS4300N? Do any instructions exist? I did a search on their forums and NS4300N isn't mentioned in any posts...

    Promise Comments: Quieting Down the Promise SmartStor NS4300N and NS4300N Review!

    Hey PromiseNasDude, Is there a way to set up an alias for the video share in the DLNA plugin? Could I possibly put a file out there that would point to other folders with video? Reason I ask is, before the DLNA plugin ever came out I put all my video in other shares on the NS4300N...
