enough said.

Couldn't agree more.

Lets see if I can set everyone straight.

1) There are A LOT of threads here, and 2 Mods for home class devices.
2) If I didn't respond, it's because I was busy doing something else.
3) PM = Product Management. I didn't forward it sooner because we CAN'T reproduce your failure, so what am I supposed to show him? A working router?
4) This is a D-Link hosted forum, NO MOD/ADMIN will EVER give out personal contact information here. I mean we use handles in our posts.....comon.

Now, we are forwarding the threads in this forum that appear to have legitmate claims to see if we can narrow down and isolate the given issue. I'm told there should be some firmware forth coming and it should address some if not all of these issues.

1) Can understand that.
2) Can also understand that.
3) So you are saying you've been able to reproduce the issue now?
4) Don't think anyone asked for his personal contact info eventhough my statement may of implied it, but I can understand the privacy issue.

Your last statement is very vague, you are told some issues will be addressed that I'm hoping to be the major ones such as the freezing router (6000 views, 258 replies) and this shareport issue (6400 views, 300 replies)

Cool...fresh firmware coming for the testing.

"Implying" is really an understatement when looking at "who is the PM?-"

No of views/replies does not vouch for the qualification 'major' of the issue. 'Most interesting' would be the most applicable qualification. 

Looking forward to the new firmware (although nothing's really broken here)

Yep, running stable - boring !
But perhaps the next firmware will change this

Thank you. We will wait.

No, we're still unable to reproduce the failures that you guys are seeing. However based on the sheer volume of people complaining and the popularity of this thread I decided that the PM should take a look again.

To be honest there should be some firmware releases for the 655 and the 4500 around the same time. Hopefully sometime this week, but please don't quote me. I have 0 control of owhen I get my hands on it.

The recent posts in the "freezing Router" thread by Fatman & myself could help explain the unexplained failures.
I can see how it would be hard to reproduce random failures.
You thoughts?

DIR-655, Hardware Version A4, Firmware Version 1.31NA, Shareport v1.10.
PC1, D-Link DWA-552 Extreme "N" Wireless PCI Adapter, Windows XP Pro sp3
PC2, D-Link DWA-542 RangeBooster "N" Wireless PCI Adapter, Windows XP Pro sp3
PC3, Onboard Realtek Wired NIC, Windows XP sp3
Printer Brother HL-1230 series laser printer connected by printer to USB port adapter cable.
All three PC do the same thing after a couple of hours.
Auto connect doesn't work and if I try it manually it goes you are connected then goes back to being available one sec after. If I reboot the PC it doesn't even connect at all I immediately get a pop up error connecting window. If I reboot the router it works fine for a while but eventually I can't connect again.
I have since un-installed the Shareport utility but now I have another problem. Previously I was using a DI-704P as the print server for the laser printer. It's DHCP server is disabled and its connection LAN to LAN to the DIR-655. It worked fine on all PCs but now it doesn't. I installed the print server software, set the port up and printed a test page OK from all PCs. Now after a couple of hours I can't print to the printer. Nothing happens, it doesn't power up. If I double click the printer icon it shows the print job but the status column in blank. Rebooting the PC and both routers won't fix it. I have to delete the printer and re-install it only to have it not work again latter on. Shareport has done something to windows that is not un-done when you un-install it. I thinkI amgoing to try a system restore on one of the PC's if I can remember when I installed Shareport.

DIR-655, Hardware Version A3, Firmware Version 1.32B02NA (tried 1.31 first), Shareport v1.10.

I gave up with this combination, printer would never connect automatically on Windows startup. It worked perfectly before with FW 1.21 and Shareport 1.14.

Bought another DIR-655 with 1.10 FW, updated it to 1.21. Now Shareport works correctly with original Shareport 1.14. I have instructed my wife to shoot me if I ever try to update the FW of this router again.

Believe it or not, but the DIR655 USB printer feature is not a print server. So comparing those is not applicable here.

A lot of printer issue are either printer driver related or TCPIP on the OS related. Installing printer driver after Shareport has been installed solved a lot of printer related issues...

Hello Demonized

I've been watching this post closely and have tried many of the suggestions users have offered but to no avail. 
I have the A4 ver 655 with the latest beta firmware.  I have 3 wireless xp machines and 1 wired, and none of them connect to the router unless the router is rebooted, same issue most here are having. I've also reinstalled the print driver as you suggest but still no luck.
just thought I'll drop in and let you know that reinstalling the print drives does not work. I'll keeping checking back for any new possible solutions.
take care

Is there anyone who has any progress on this shareport issue?
