Fan never turns OFF when connected to router
« on: April 18, 2012, 12:34:25 PM »
When files are being accessed over the network, my fan is usually on high. The rest of the time the fan is always on low. Once in a blue moon, it will actually shut off, but that is very very rare. I don't have any of the servers enabled on it (iTunes, FTP, P2P, nothing).

If I disconnect the DNS-320 from the network, the fan shuts off after a few minutes!

I've tried different routers -- same result.

I've also tried disconnecting the only devices that access the DNS-320 (Apple TV & WDTV Live) from the network -- same result.

I'm really hoping the next firmware fixes this.

... and I have the Hibernation set to 15 minutes, and the Fan options set to Auto Off/Low/High

In this thread, Sambuccashake suggests that blocking port 6881 on the router will fix this. I tried this on my Cisco E3000 router, but it didn't help. I may try it on my lesser DIR-655 router, like Sambuccashake has.
