    Skynet A few questions on a new Skynet installation

    Thanks for the response. I could use clarification with one item though. I simply added the country code to the ban list, didn't choose to ban inbound or outbound not was able to locate an area where I could choose the direction of the ban. My intention for the banned countries to ban both...

    Skynet A few questions on a new Skynet installation

    Hi, completed a long overdue upgrade of Merlin to 3004.388.8_4 yesterday. My environment is on RT-AX88U with 256SSD. So far, no issues overnight. I do have the following Skynet v7.6.4 questions: 1. I have implemented a full ban of all countries through a compiled list of country codes, except...

    Skynet Skynet - Simple way to ban all countries?

    How do I execute this : skynet country ban RU since firewall is the only option and skynet doesn't appear to be supported. I blocked the entire list of countries except US but would like to block China and Russia from outgoing connections. It does work in the firewall form of the command. Any...

    384.18 to 386.4_0 upgrade on RT-AC88U

    Thanks eibgrad. I guess being this far behind, I will have to be willing to bite the bullet and redo the configuration. I have a few questions on going with a full reinstall/reconfigure. 1. I t this a direct upgrade in the conventional AUS upgrade of pushing the bin file or do I need to take...

    384.18 to 386.4_0 upgrade on RT-AC88U

    Hi, I am currently using Asuswrt-Merlin 384.18 on RT-AC88U, which is getting really long in the tooth. Like to move to 386.4 but not certain if I can apply it directly or if there is a procedure I need to follow due to the difference between the source and target versions. Also, Would I be...

    DS1515+ Samba transfer problem

    Thanks for pulling it back sfx2000. Also, thanks for the doc link. I have disabled the opportunistic locking now. Will have to monitor through the next few large copies and see it helps. Is there a price to pay for disabling it?

    DS1515+ Samba transfer problem

    Are you guys aware of any setting changes to WD Red Plus drives before putting them into service in the NAS or is the standard procedure of power off NAS, flip drive, power on, let it rebuild, rinse and repeat is good enough?

    Yeah, once I see how the Red Plus functions I might consider upgrading the Green ones. Thanks for sharing your experience.

    DS1515+ Samba transfer problem

    I dislike Seagate and had plenty of problems with it historically while entirely opposite experience with WD. I believe a NAS drive spinning at 5400 rpm has a longer life expectancy than a 7200 rpm drive and my priority is on stability and longevity side rather than performance. I believe in...

    DS1515+ Samba transfer problem

    Hi John. I am on the current patch level of DSM6. I will consider 7 once the tires get kicked a bit longer or when I am forced to go 7. On a not so directly related matter, just noticed Amazon got the new WD40EFZX for $98. I just might go for 3 of them and upgrade my aging 8.5 years of...

    DS1515+ Samba transfer problem

    Thank you for your feedback about my Samsung drives, but I have been using them in my NAS for over 75,000 hours and it works fine and passes my extended SMART tests without any problems. I have zero interest in switching to SSD for a foreseeable future. I am getting about 50MBit approx...

    DS1515+ Samba transfer problem

    What would be your rationale in suggesting to change the max SMB to 2? HDD setup consists of 5 HDDs in 9TB SHR.

    DS1515+ Samba transfer problem

    The issue is intermittent as I have mentioned, it works most times wired or wireless. About 1 out of 20 copy tasks are failing on average I would say. I have a total of 6GB of RAM on the NAS. I believe this is the Synology forum. Is there a different one?

    DS1515+ Samba transfer problem

    I am having an intermittent data transfer problem when I try to copy a relatively large number/size (a dozen files, totaling to 10 to 15 GB in size) files from by laptop over to the mapped NAS drive under Windows 10. It is a gigabit LAN connection to the NAS from the router and my laptop...
