P2P problem with firmware 2.02
« on: January 06, 2012, 02:15:31 PM »

hi Folks,

I bought my DNS-320 about a year ago and decided to update it this week.

I updated it directly to firmware 2.02. (was previously 1.00, never updated)

Today I noticed that the P2P folder was missing (this folder include "torrent", "complete"& "incomplete" folders).
I downloaded 2 torrents, and it's working but I can't find the files when the download is finished.

I tried the "Restore To Factory Default Settings" option twice, but nothing happened(no P2P). I tried to find the 2 files I have downloaded but it seems they're not on the disk when I use the windows search(or manually).

I downloaded the 1.00 & 2.00 versions of the firmware and tried to use it in the "firmware upgrade" menu but my DNS-320 don't want to go back to a previous version(maybe that's normal, not suppose to go back to a previous firmware this way).

Any brilliant ideas/advises accepted  :)

PS: English's not my native language, don't hesitate to tell me if my sentences are not correct or not comprehensible to you.
PPS: do you think using the setup wizard (which erase ALL DATAs) could be a good idea in my "position"?

Thanks

I checked out in the "application" menu, I used the "web file server" application and "Surprise, surprise" my P2P folder is there and the files I downloaded.

So i can use the download function of the application to get the files on my computer(only if the size is less than 2GB).
I used the address "Z:\P2P\complete" and i can access with windows to the "complete", "torrent & incomplete" but not P2P folder directly.

if i try this message appear:
Quote
Z:\P2P refers to a location that is unavailable. It could be on a hard drive on this computer, or on a network. Check to make sure that the disk is properly inserted, or that your are connected to the Internet or your network, and then try again. If it still cannot be located, the information might have been moved to a different location.

1-the only drive I have is properly inserted because I use it, and network's OK

I think there is some kind of "access right" I don't have for the P2P folder, this is very strange & I don't know how to change that, but thanks I have my data back (maybe).

If in find the solution I will post it, I will probably make a setup wizard soon after putting my data safe

Many has encountered the same problem and it's due to the way is was fixed in firmware 2.02.

P2P folder is hidden and will appear as Shared Folder under network when P2P feature is enabled. If it doesn't, try doing a "restore to factory default settings".

Have you tried mapping it out as a network drive? it happened to me and this is what I have done and it seems to work pretty good.
