A2 Upgrade to latest Beta 8 firmware
« on: December 28, 2009, 09:14:15 AM »
I was thinking about moving to the Beta firmware on my RMA'd A2.  I am running 1.16 as of now.  I wanted to use the shareport stuff and it seems that it has been pretty good for most.  I have some wireless laptops but my gaming stuff is all wired and my Blu-ray netflix player is also wired.  Just getting a little feedback before making the jump.  Is the shareport working with the 1.2x stuff?  I had read some things that it wasn't.

Just curious of there is a reason why your thinking of going to Beta 08 v1.21? Haven't heard any issues with SharePoint or seen any on here. I don't use it and hope that someone else can comment for you on this. Otherwise, Wired connections using B08 FW has been very stable and working great for me on my A1 HW. I have several PCs and a xbox connected wired and a Laptop connected Wireless N only. Wireless seems to be the last major issue that DLink we presume knows about and presume is working to correct. I have shut the wireless off for now until they post a new build, when and if they do. I'm using a different wireless access point for now. I'm very happy with the Wired side though.

My A2 does not like the beta 08.  It reboots every 2 days.  :'(

How about Beta 03? Just curious if this happens on all builds of 1.21.

just an FYI

try setting the logging to Firewall and Critical only and reboot it.

That should stop the reboots/unresponsiveness.

ONLY thing that worked for me.
