I recently purchased a DIR-860L router with my main intention of running a iTunes Server on a storage connected to this router. I did my research before I bought the router to confirm that this particular version supports running the iTunes Server. Now, although I have all the required configurations as listed below and being on the phone (nearly ~3 hrs) with D-link tech support, I haven't been able to find a solution to get my iTunes library shown on my iTunes v12 (Windows 7) or my iPhone.
1. Setup -> Media Server -> iTunes Server
Enabled
Not root - configured to the appropriate folder on the drive that is connected.
2. Advanced -> Advanced Network
Enable IPv4 Multicast Streams: [checked/enabled]
I am able to access the storage using the IP of my router, that seems to be working OK. The only issue I am seeing is the library not showing up.
Could anyone confirm if this feature is working on their router too? If anyone has a solution (such as permissions/filesystem type requirements) it would be of great help to me..
My router is running Firmware v1.08 and the H/w version is A1.
Thanks,
Sunil
