I don't know what I've done, but now I cannot see the DNS323 or access it - EXCEPT - I can ftp and access it's webpage to configure it. Can someone give me some hints or things I might have done so I can undo it?

I saw a post somewhere, he did a reset and everything went back to normal. As a last resort, I will try that.

On this DNS323 I have many backups as well as videos and music. I am using Twonky to stream to a media player. This all works well. Except of course, now I have to ftp to get to them...

Any Help Here?

Which version of windows?

[elsiebuck]

Windows 7

I thought it might be because of the number of posts by people with the same or very similar problems.

I don't use windows - in fact we don't have it on any of our computers - so I can't help directly.

The first thing you should do is check the network settings on your computer to see if anything has changed.  You should also do a search of the forum which should give you possible answers.  Failing that, I'm sure some windows expert will have the answer.

I have searched, I guess I need to just browse a bit more and perhaps I might run across the answers I seek. Thank you for your interest.

Well, I did the factory reset and everything worked fine for a couple of minutes.

Except as I thought I was saving settings before and after the factory reset both file lenghts were zero.

And after a couple of minutes, again I can not access the DNS323 server via windows explorer.

The twonky media players runs fine, and ftp works fine. So am I to assume the twonky media player/streamer is the cause of loss connection?

Can be difficult to see the wood for the trees here, can't it Try the following thread and see if that helps clarify things a little:

Windows 7 and DNS-323 connection issues

I had already found that link and done all of that.

No, the problem I am having is not a d-link problem. I may have/have not mentioned, I am running Twonky to stream to my tv network. I've had the d-link for about a year as a fileserver. I could access it via z:\ from 5 different computers. I recently upgraded to a ASKA RFDM-3 (a 3 input rf modulator). This allowed me to deliver antenna IN (normal channels), a DVR (channel 14), security cameras (channel 18), and a sony media player (channel 16) to EVERY TV in my house.

The problem is Twonky. If I chmod 666 starttwonky.sh so that is does NOT startup after re-boot, I can access the nas all day long. When I go back and chmod 777 starttwonky.sh and re-boot, I have a quick couple of minutes before none of the computers can access the nas again.

I am on THEIR forum seeking answers since this is not a d-link problem.

I do respectfully thank you and ivan for your help in this.
