Multicast and IPTV after A3/1.11 firmware?!?!
« on: November 02, 2009, 01:14:26 AM »
So, after upgrading firmware to 1.32 I cant watch IPTV anymore. Multicast button under advance network settings doesnt do anything (checked or unchecked).  I cant downgrade! What should I do now, change router?

Any mods, devs or admins knows if there is some new trick that I have overlooked?

It is a real shame you upgraded from 1.21 - probably 99% of people on this board would pay a small fee to go back to that WORKING firmware...

As for the multicast, I have a couple of suggestions. First of all a reset to factory default then setup the router again (cofig restores after reboot have been buggy), also, try playing with SPI in firewall, try putting all your machines on fixed IPs handed out by the router (at least minimises other problems and probably adds stability), check out your QoS settings (especially after the latest firware) and see if adding a setting for your port will help - for mine I just have HTTP and WMC enabled, but for multicasting on a particular port it might be helpful to add more. Also, what is the port for multicasting? That really interests me. Is something else conflicting with it on either your internal network or on NAt translation? What's the port range for the multicasting?

Just a few ideas, though I know not much about it ;)

I had more problems with that firmware than any other so I would NEVER want to go back to it.

I find your suggestions funny as you are basically telling the person to mess with everything until you find the right fix.  ;)

I think your suggestions were accidentally truncated. Maybe you could repost them? ;)

Well I asked him to fiddle with the relevant bits - not everyone knows their way around like we do. I feel like I could change the 655 firmware settings blindfold now I have been working o it for that long.
