ok thanks. ive implemented this and disabled mionet as it definetely causes my book to freeze up also.

030811 update: the 64GB upload was a success!! i think we may be on to something here. here is a snapshot of what i did.

1) followed LarsMaschke post to remove "nice -n -20" so that it just says "/usr/sbin/smbd -D" in /etc/init.d/S90smbd.

2) followed Vlado post to disable everything mionet (I didnt do mv /etc/init.d/S97twonkyserver /root which deals w/ twonky) and i also edited /usr/mionet/monitorCVM.sh to make Mionet obey startup flag.

3) reboot through putty and/or web interface.

i had undone everything else i'd tried on the forums here so truly mionet is the only thing disabled.

Thank you, I will give that a try later on. I saw that topic but didn't look as for me it's not even copying large jobs, it's just browsing and it locks up. Mionet is a nice idea but one of the worst programs I have ever encountered and it has been the cause of most problems, so any way that I can use my WD drive without having to rely on Mionet would be wonderful. Thanks.

Hi,

On my particular case, which seems to be the same as the 100% of MBWE II White Light, that the NAS hangs and have to take out the power cord to get it back to life.

What I found is that my NAS inside gets up to 45ºC/113ºF, so I'm suspecting the main cause of it is the temperature.

The worst thing is that it doesn't come with a cooling solution, so I'll have to try to put on top a cooler to take out the heat from it and see what happens.

Anything I could try by config, to low down temps?

Thanks
