Right now the only possibility is to provide accesses to users/friends to a specific folder in My Book Live. Let's call it Folder 1. These users/friends have automatically access to all the sub folders located in the folder 1 at the root of My Book Live let's call them File 1a, File 1b, File 1c,... However, it is not possible to provide different level of access at File 1a or File 1b or File 1c level... For example, if I do not want to provide access to my Friends to File 1b the only possibility is to put File 1b at the root level of My Book Live (same level than File 1). But it implies that I re arrange all my classification...

Add an option to automatically turn off the harddrive if it does not have a valid ip for more than a certain time (when the yellow led blinks).

I usually turn off the router at night and I would like to turn off the hard drive as well. Since there is no power button I should enter the webpage, login, and find the turn off button.

Add a way to remove or hide "Shared videos" and similar folders from the main public share

As I find all the three LANs (wired, 2,4GHz, 5 GHz) share the same address range (i.e. 192.168.1.x) rather than allowing 2/3 diferent address ranges (i.e. 192.168.1.x and 192.168.10.y) - I would welcome the latter. Reading MAC addresses on the WAN side, one the wired LAN side and on the WiFi LAN side is also very difficult (only one MAC listed on the box label).

At least I cannot find how to change log-out time with MyNet 900 Central - is that adjustable in any way, or that's new bright idea for WD firmware programmers?

Check the copy of SAFEPOINT and found the wrong name , because è,ò,à,ù in the filename are converted in something like cyrillic characters.

 

I need to fix this problem for my SAFEPOINT backup

 

Thanks Andrea Mornati

I use a WD MyBookLve at work but i was not able to do upgrade because we have a proxy. So everytime i must take out the WD at home to do upgrade. This is not really pratical. Thank you.

For a day or two I thought my router was having issues because I couldn't connect to the web GUI. Then I remembered the old days when you could only configure your router if you were hard wired to it. I like the default to be this secure but I'd like to have the option to change that.

It would be nice to be able to mount/plug Trucrypt protected USB drives into the n900 routers USB ports.

need to set up n750  and n900 as a bridge or repeater.

I currently own a My Net n750 and have been playing around with it recently. Of all the current features and customizations etc, i have one complaint. That is although the QoS works currently well i feel that it would be better (at least for my purposes) to individually control the uplink speed of each individual rule added. I do not like the idea of setting one uplink speed for the whole network when i want to limit just one computer. Also i would like to see uplink speeds ( download/upload) split instead of a combination of the two. I would be more comfortable using this router on my network if it had offered this level of control.

Many of us have albums that include guest artists.

 

The limitation with Artist/Album tag is that it would seperate an album into multiple entries.

 

For example, say P!nk's The Truth About Love have a song with Nate Ruess.

 

Then there will be two entries. (P!nk) and (P!nk & Nate Ruess)

 

It can drive you crazy when you have a dozen of albums from an artist with 20 to 30 duets.

 

iTunes has been supporting Album-Artist tag for a while,

 

so it makes sense for WD to add this tag (Album-Artist / Album) in a future upgrade 

I think that almost everyone would like to be able to set the maximum size for each share, here are a few examples...

 

1. Parents want unlimited share size(s), but for each of their kids they wish to limit the share size for each of them so that it doesn't get spammed with stuff that doesn't need to be there. I know a few parents would be very happy if their children's homework etc was stored on the HD rather than just their computer as a back up.

 

2. Freaks like me will want to set specific share sizes just to allow us to keep things organized and up together.

 

3. A lot of people have Macs and currently the timemachine will use up the entire drive, it is one heck of a hogger. Since Apple have yet to fix this, and may never do...this may be great for users so they can set a limit on their timemachine share.

 

I can think of loads of reasons why this would be a great feature, and to be honest it is the only feature (or rather lack of)  which is preventing me from buying myself one; though I know a lot of people who already own one or more of these, and therefore I am very interested in at least one for myself.

 

PS: It may be an idea to also allow some shared "No Limit", thus can use whatever free/usable space is remaining, but those with limits can only use up to the limit(s) set.

 

PPS: Might also be worth concidering whether or not to have share limits per user as well as per share. This could be a max limit for a user regardless of which shared they are using, or it could be a max limit for them within a specific share.

 

I think at the end of the day, I could be happy to create a share for each person and set a limit on those shares, leaving mine with 'No Limit'.

 

Many thanks,

 

Shane

Dear all,

 

I had the problem that all the time when I connected the MyPassport to the My Book Live Duo and I insert the right password a Error appeared.

 

After I formatted the MyPassport and take a new passeord (shorter and without special signs I was able to unlock the MyPassport in the dashboard of the My Book Live Duo.

 

For next update of SW please take out this limitation or fix the possible bug.

 

Thx

I have a great idea...

 

1. Make the N900 stable and run for more than 2-3 days under light usage / 10 minutes under heavy usage

2. Allow full functionality as stated in website (functionality that last more than #1)

3. Fix the AP mode

4. Fix the firmware so every time when logging into the management console I do not see notices about registering my device, my upload speed being detected, and also the guest wireless being setup after I have clicked ignore for the 1000th time or registered for the 100th time

5. Make the fan actually work to cool the device instead sitting there looking pretty while never spinning.  Seeing how heat is an issue and my router loves to be cooled with an external fan, others have proved the same thing.  Mental note, heat rises.

6. Fix the USB ports to actually transmit close to a USB 2.0 speed, even though it is blue in color appearing to be a USB 3.0, which it is not.  My speeds are not even USB 1.0 fast

7. Fix the CPU section so I can actually upload a file to the EXT USB HDD larger than 1GB without locking up the CPU/chipset/whatever

8.  Maybe post a firmware how to guide so the rest of the world could have a chance to actually fix it.  Posting the code by itself is pretty good, but without some insight it is probably useless.  There are serious nerds out here in the real world that could help, if you let us.

9. Listen to the community.  I mean we are the customers after all.  Without us, you wouldn't exist nor would your products.  I have been so pleased with my N900 that I removed from my system, purchased your competitors product, and vow to fix my useless router that I do not even use by annoying WD to death with these comments, RMA's and trouble tickets as I am still under warranty.  WD makes other great products, their routers not so much.

10. Fix the deployment of SMB to be standard, and current.  Most people who attempt to use it fail due to WD's deployment of it.

11. Maybe allow the FTP function to exist on the WAN side.  With DLNA and SMB, FTP is pretty silly in the LAN.  It would be a benefit on the WAN side.  I know this doesn't work due to spending 2 days trying to make it work.

 

Could you include these features on the next firmware update:

- Turn off video transcoding on DLNA

- editable DLNA profiles

- Folder selection/exclusion on DLNA mapping.

 

All these options could improve the satisfaction of the users and also reduce the Technical questions.

 

For example, I'm having problems to stream mkv files with my net 750 to my Samsung TV C series (Certified DLNA Guidelines Version 1.5).

 

The same files works fine when I use the HD directly to the USB port on the TV... wich totally isn't the idea behind buying this particular router !!!

 

>>> As I understand, this is due the Router acting as media player (transcoding) instead of serving the content directly to the Samsung TV. This could be solved, both by Turning off the transcoding or via DLNA Profiles.

 

Thanks in advance.
