I'm afraid Google drive support will not work anymore
« on: July 27, 2015, 02:25:54 AM »

I was going crazy trying to make google drive syncronization work on my DSL-320L and finally I found this page on the net:

http://askubuntu.com/questions/611801/grive-sync-error-possibly-google-api-shift

Google drive support in DSL-320L is implemente with grive and it seems that grive will not work anymore because of a change in google API's.
It seems also that because of this change, Grive project has also been abandoned:
https://www.thefanclub.co.za/how-to/ubuntu-google-drive-client-grive-and-grive-tools
I'd like to know if DLINK has any implementation plan to make google drive sync work with another tool or if they decided to abandon it.
In my opinion they should declare this problem in any case.

Thank you for posting this information.  I recommend that you phone contact your regional D-Link support office and ask for help and information regarding this. We find that phone contact has better immediate results over using email.
Let us know how it goes please.

Thank you for posting the information. Being that the 320L is getting a bit long in the pants, this model maybe headed towards EOL if not already. If there isn't any security issues, I presume D-Link may not do any feature additions or fixes.

Has Google Drive ever worked?  AFAIK it hasn't (I could be wrong and will freely raise my hands up and apologise if proved wrong because I am human and I make mistakes and I'm proud to admit them when needed)

If it has never worked then why is it listed as a function/feature/capability within the User Manual?

Now if D Link will happily confirm that Google Drive is a listed function/feature/capability and that it doesnt (or has never worked) maybe I could return my 320L to Amazon or D Link for a refund

And to add insult to injury (so to speak) Amazon still have this same product for sale with no mention of EOL - maybe I should inform them?
