I've upgraded my DGL-4500 to v1.21b01 already, but I still have the same problem that the SharePort Utility v1.1.0 R1 cannot connect to my Canon MP610 via SharePort USB (I'm using "Connect automatically only for printing") which keeping connecting, connected, available then connecting again repeatly.  Once I power recycle my DGL-4500, the printing resumes immediately and automatically.  I have this problem since I upgraded my DGL4500 from v1.15 to v1.20 and replace SharePort USB Utility v1.14 by the newest SharePort Utility v1.10.  I can print via SharePort only for few days (2~4 days), then connection failure until reboot the DGL4500 !!

Before you upgrade firmware on your DIR-655 be sure to go check the forum for that router.  There are quite a few threads discussing problems in many firmware version > 1.22b05.  It may save you some problems.

Well, according to the Release Note of DGL4500 firmware v1.21beta01, only 1 fix for SharePort - "3. Fix SharePort for HP printer".  It seems that this newer firmware just solve the compatibility of SharePort for HP printers, but not really fix the connection issues and slow performance proproblems on SharePort.  :-\

I spoke too soon. Worked for a bit, and now, isn't connecting to the printer when I want to print. It's just available but when I print, it hangs in the que. Dang.

Confirmed that I MUST REBOOT my DGL-4500 everyday for printing via the SharePort.   :-[

In these days, I have many printing almost everyday.  It is very frustrating that I can not connect to my Canon MP610 printer via the SharePort.  The only "solution" is I must click "Reboot the Device" in the administration menu or power cycle the DGL-4500, then the printing resumes immediately automatically.  ps. I always turn off my printer and PC after used, only the DGL-4500 will run 24 hours.

note.  Again, my DGL-4500 with v1.15 can run for couple weeks without any reboot but no issue on printing via the SharePort.

Dear Ru-Fi-Oh,

Any solution?  Do you have any timeline for the new firmware (at least for DGL-4500) and SharePort Utility?

Thanks.

I updated the DIR-655 firmware to the 1.32 beta version.  Shareport still will not find my attached USB printer (Canon Pixma 4000) until I reboot the router.   Once it has been detected, I can connect and reconnect from 3 PCs fine for a while, but, sooner or later (usually every day) I have to reboot the router before Shareport will work again.

The same happen on my DGL-4500 with v1.20 & v1.21beta01 that I must reboot the router in order my Canon MP610 printer can be connected.  I've tested that the connections can be made only for around 3 to 4 hours.  After that, the SharePort Utility can see the printer but CANNOT connect to printer ever until reboot the router.

FYI,I am having the same issue as everybody else -- connects from 3 PCs fine for a few hours, then disconnects as soon as I try to print, going back to available status. Rebooting the router resolves the problem for a while (a few hours).

This is with a DIR-655 and an Epson Workforce 500 multi-function printer. All PCs are running Win XP SP3.

Waiting for the referenced code to go out of beta before I download and update the firmware on my router. I don't run beta code  :-\

I just installed firmware v1.32 Beta 3 on my DIR-655 A4 router a few minutes ago and am going to test out the SharePort functionality through the day to see if it still works after the router's been on for a few hours. I've got the router connected to a Samsung ML-1740 laser printer. I really hope this fixes the "device is available but cannot connect" bug that so many people (including myself) have posted about at this forum.

UPDATE 1: It's been about two-and-a-half hours since the router was powered on and SharePort is still able to connect to my printer. Let's see how long this lasts...

UPDATE 2: Less than three hours after the router was powered on, SharePort is no longer able to connect to my printer. What a major disappointment to say the least...

I DO  NOT understand that why they keeps to ask us to try the newest beta frimware if we have SharePort issue.  Well, those beta 2 or beta 3 firmware of other router, like my DGL-4500 still HAS THE SAME BUG on the SharePort.  Why not D-Link re-use the old code of SharePort from the ex-v1.2x of DIR655 and ex-v1x of DGL-4500.

Please note that this bug was happened since v1.3x (DIR) & v1.2x (DGL) for 2 months aleady.
