| Guest | Foldershare and DI-624 router reboots Hi all, Foldershare is great, but it causes serious instability in my router. When Foldershare is on, the router reboots literally once a minute. As soon as I shut down the application, the problems vanish. I researched this problem elsewhere, and the one suggested solution (changing to a different firmware version) doesn't seem to help. Are there any network settings I should tweak to try and increase stability, or do I basically have to go and get a new router? Thanks, David |

More, Port Status tab of Settings. If you have checked the box labeled: "Use UPNP to automatically forward ports" you might try unchecking it. On some of my sites FolderShare is working fine with no open incoming ports whatever, whether by manually configured port forwarding or set by UPnP. Tony | ||||||||||||

| Guest | Re: Foldershare and DI-624 router reboots I'd really rather not disable uPNP - it's really useful! Is there anything else I can do? "Anthony R. Gold" wrote:

itself, not on the router. To do so, go to Foldershare's settings, Port Settings, and uncheck "Use UPNP to automatically forward posts." | ||||||||||||

| Guest | Re: Foldershare and DI-624 router reboots Oops, silly me. This seems to have solved the instability issue. Many thanks guys. "Robert G" wrote:

| Guest | Re: Foldershare and DI-624 router reboots Actually, I may have spoken too soon. Despite disabling uPNP on both clients, I still get router reboots. It just took slightly longer to happen this time. Any other thoughts? "David Kaye" wrote:

| Guest | Re: Foldershare and DI-624 router reboots David, What firmware are you using on that 624? I seem to recall some issues with one of the versions of the firmware that caused sporadic reboots. http://support.dlink.com/products/re...oductId=DI-624 -- Richard Hay http://WindowsObserver.com "David Kaye" <DavidKaye@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:05790B86-7758-49E6-B452-F4218E122C14@xxxxxx

| Guest | Re: Foldershare and DI-624 router reboots I was using 2.70. I upgraded it to 2.75 in accordance with something I read on the net somewhere (the max is 2.76). The problem persists in both versions. "Richard Hay" wrote:

| Guest | Re: Foldershare and DI-624 router reboots I know you seemed to want to use uPNP but I'm using FolderShare with my DI-624 with uPNP turned off. You may have some other reason to use uPNP. I had problems with 2.70 and WPA. I upgraded to 2.76 and have been stable. 2.76 may not fix your reboot but is otherwise stable for me. BACKUP YOUR CONFIGURATION BEFORE YOU UPGRADE TO 2.76. I lost all my settings! "David Kaye" wrote:

| Guest | Re: Foldershare and DI-624 router reboots I'll try upgrading to 2.76 tonight. Just to be clear - have you turned off uPNP on the router or in FolderShare? I disabled it in FolderShare, but as I said above I'd prefer to keep it on in the router if possible. "fastoy" wrote:
