    Question on Networked drive

    Hi, this is a question on a network drive. It is not a NAS drive (so apologies if this is in the wrong section). I have an external hard drive that I need to place on my Network. It can't go in my router or my laptop unfortunately. My solution at the moment is to connect it via USB cable into a...

    Broken power button

    This happened to me last night. I haven't even used that button once in 4 years. Will try the trick above but not sure it's the safest so - what's the best router to replace it with? ASUS ac68U any good? I use it to connect to a Virgin Media Hub 2 in modem mode. 3 tablets 3 phones are always...

    Turn PC on remotely

    Would it have anything to do with me having another router, acting as an access point with the ip address: 192.168.1.2

    Turn PC on remotely

    Thanks for that. Unfortunately I've not got the know how to even know where to begin. My problem I think is that I'm "double Natted" whatever that means. The DDNS side of things says "Invalid IP address" and "The wireless router currently uses a private WAN IP address (192.168.x.x, 10,x,x,x...

    Turn PC on remotely

    Apparently my WAN IP is offline. My AN IP is 192.168.0.2 While my Router IP is 192.168.1.1 Is this the problem?

    Advice on firmware please. (RT-N66U)

    Bump. So unfortunately I have still got wired speed problems and wired transfer rate problems. Before updating firmware I was on 13 MB/s over gb ethernet from pc to my USB connected to router. Now it's barely 8MB/s. which is disappointing. Suggestions welcome.

    Advice on firmware please. (RT-N66U)

    Yeah I think so. Cheers. I assigned the other router as an access point on 192.168.1.2. I turned off DNLA and it seems to be ok. My wired connection isn't as fast as it should be on my main pc (it was 60Mbps instead of the usual 150Mbps), but I'm not sure that's a fault of the firmware?

    Advice on firmware please. (RT-N66U)

    I've just turned DLNA off completely, This has made a difference to the HDD. Yay! But I presume I won't be able to use it as a media server for playstation and tvs etc? That shouldn't be a problem to be honest.

    Advice on firmware please. (RT-N66U)

    Right, I've gone back to 376.45. With the same settings. I then changed disk spindown time to 600 seconds. But it is still spinning. The media server status still says "scanning", and it's been doing that for 15 minutes now. Is that's what it is? No devices are accessing it. I've also turned...

    Advice on firmware please. (RT-N66U)

    Yet another problem last night! Got upstairs and my external hard drive wasn't powering down (it normally powers down after 10 mins if nothing is using it.). There were nod evices running. I powered the asus router down. took the usb HDD out, and powered the router up. Plugged HDD in - and...
