Hi all,

I have recently had a Time Capsule die on me and purchased the DNS-323 in the hopes that I can get this working with Time Machine backups. Admittedly I did not do my research and am now having issues getting this to work. Everything I've read suggests it's possible if I enable AFP and Bonjour on the 323 (there is a hack to get Time Machine to use SMB shares, but I would rather not have to hack Time Machine). All of the searches I've done seem to suggest that there used to be a Bonjour addon for the DNS-323, but that seems to have mysteriously vanished apparently after the 1.09 FW update. I've scoured the ftp site without having any luck. Does anybody know where I would get the install package for Bonjour support on the 323 or am I SOL? I know I can attempt to hack the 323 and install AFP and Bonjour that way, but to tell the truth it is beyond my knowledge and there are no clear step by step instructions that I could find. Thanks in advance for any help provided.

I wonder how extensive your search was?

As I posted in my initial message, hacking the DNS-323 is beyond my knowledge. I found that page that you linked, and I even attempted to follow it to the letter, but I could not get it to work. In the end, I had to revert the DNS-323 to factory settings as whatever I had done was causing issues with even the simplest of tasks. I do not consider myself savvy enough to truly understand those instructions and therefore cannot alter them to make it work. I was hoping that D-Link would provide the package for installation on the 1.09 firmware as that would require no hacking whatsoever (and I assume would be considerably easier to implement). But thank you for your suggestion.
