Hi,

My wife has a new computer and I cannot get Shareport to recognize our external drive. It worked on her old PC running XP. I've tried everything I can think of and searched for help but to no avail.

I keep getting the error that says no servers are broadcasting and nothing appears in the main screen device list.

Here are the hardware/software details:

Computer: Dell Inspiron 620
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit SP 1
Router: D-Link DIR 628, Firmware 1.13 2008/10/01 (original no upgrades yet)
Shareport 3.0.0 R1 SXUPTP driver 3.3.8.0

Device I am trying to connect to: Fantom GreenDrive II

I tried totally disabling the Windows firewall, that did not work.

During install I agreed to include this int eh firewall approved list, and I see Shareport in the list of allowed programs, and the check boxes are checked.

The wireless network is working properly. My wife's PC is on the Internet.

What am I doing wrong, and how can I get this to work?

Thanks for your help.

Maurice

I would try the v4.00 version of SP found under the DIR-827 web site resources.

hello,

I removed Shareport 3.0 and installed Shareport 4.0.  I also rebooted the router.

Shareport 4.0 still cannot see any devices.

Maybe I need to update the router firmware. I'm researching that option.

This has been very frustrating. Everything worked fine with XP and the original Shareport software, 1.something

Thanks for your help.
