western digital usb portable hard drive shareport problems
« on: July 09, 2011, 07:21:08 AM »

Trying to connect western digital usb portable hard drive to router usb and shareport - keeps disconnecting... I'm on a wireless laptop, by the way. Have all the latest firmware and shareport, ect...

 How am I to configure the shareport and/or the usb harddrive. Keep getting error "Did not disconnect properly" every 20-30 seconds...

You may want to present this question in the Shareport for PC forum.

Not alot of call of shareport features on this board. Some have had luck in getting it set up, other not so much. I personally don't use it and have devices share out on a server. There are some limitations on HD sizes from what I hear and you do have to run the shareport utility program on each PC that you want to use with it.
