    Better Router for HD Streaming than DIR655

    Solved the HD streaming freeze / stuttering problem by: - enabling the uPnP streaming at the QNAP NAS and - use uPnP @ ACRyan Media Player for playing the 720 & 1080p content.

    Better Router for HD Streaming than DIR655

    Hi Steve, Sorry I misunderstood your suggestion a week ago when you 1st suggested MoCa. Thought you were referring to another form of Cat cable. Since I've Coax socket near the TV in the living room and the NAS. This might the solution. I've tried Ethernet over power line solution...

    Better Router for HD Streaming than DIR655

    Yes I could. Tried before. Few things I don't like about using internal HDD in the media player: 1) Heat generated by the HDD - might affect the component of the media player in the long run since the player is quite compact. 2) It could only hold 1 HDD. I still have to selectively transfer...

    Better Router for HD Streaming than DIR655

    @ Tim: thanks for the suggestion. I've portable 1.5 TB HDD which could be used for "copy & walk" method. But prefer to have a neat & efficient solution. @ stevech: Wish I could tear down the wall and ceiling at my house to install the Cat5 cable. But that is not an option. @ tipstir: DCS...

    Better Router for HD Streaming than DIR655

    Thanks for all the feedback. @ DaveMcLain: Tried to run "N only mode" does not improve the situation. @ Tim: any suggestions for the media player that fit the criteria you mentioned? I'm using PlayOnHD at the moment.

    TS 439 Pro - Poor After Sales Support

    To conclude my experience with the QNAP and Memory World After Sales Support: After more chats with QNAP Support and calls to Memory World Technical Support staff - I picked up the NAS Unit yesterday (15-Dec). Have tested @ home and seems to be running normal now. The RAID 5 configuration...

    TS 439 Pro - Poor After Sales Support

    Just want to update thru this forum. A few minutes ago. The QNAP Support (thru chat line) confirmed that QNAP Taiwan has repaired my PCB, it's being sent out yesterday (Fri), and on its way to Singapore. The local technical support also called me saying that it may arrive today (Sat) or...

    TS 439 Pro - Poor After Sales Support

    I did sent email to QNAP Support and posted my feedback on their forum http://forum.qnap.com/viewtopic.php?f=45&t=23359 Someone in that forum kindly enough to help me to forward my feedback directly to QNAP Executive Level Management. But no good news so far. What I'm doing right now is to...

    TS 439 Pro - Poor After Sales Support

    Thanks Bigsy. I backup some of the data but not all. Duplicating terabytes of data data is not cheap. I was expecting high-end QNAP NAS with RAID 5 would give me better reliability. The local reseller (Memory World Pte. Ltd. - http://www.memoryworld.com.sg/) happens to have a monopoly right...

    TS 439 Pro - Poor After Sales Support

    Thanks for the comment!! You're very right to point out that the problem is at the distributor. As customer though I demand QNAP to be responsible for their distributor. FYI - Only one official distributor in Singapore. It shouldn't be too difficult to manage. If QNAP can't implement the...

    TS 439 Pro - Poor After Sales Support

    I had problem with my TS 439 Pro since last weekend. The unit - after running fine for 4 months - suddenly shutdown by itself. Since then I had some interactions with Online Support (thru web/email) and Instant Messaging. They are quite responsive. The conclusion was the NAS unit is faulty...
