Title: DIR-635 & SHAREPORT - APPLET doesn't see the Router
Post by: SHREK288 on August 23, 2009, 08:43:06 AM

Hi all,
I got this Dlink to replace my useless linksys wrt150n. And so far i am exceptionally pleased with its performance. my M8 who got it for me advised me that there would be an update to the firmware to allow the USB port on the back to become a SHAREPORT. Checked DLINK Website and there it is . So I downloaded and installed the firmware on to the Router Version B1 -Firmware Version: 2.30EA  which all worked fine. I then installed the SHAREPORT software on to both my PC and LAPTOP. PC is connected Wirelessly & Ethernet. Neither machine sees the router via the SHAREPORT applet (the Small band on the top the describes the router and Ip addy is missing  :-\) . So therefore unable to connect to either my printer , External HDD or USB Jumpdrives anyone who can advise please do
Cheers to all in Advance

P>S. tried rebooting Router , PC's , UN installing and reinstalling etc etc etc. Not tooo Savvy when it comes to firewalls etc . ???
