USB shared storage transferring at 200kb/s!!!

I have an EA3500 and a Windows Vista PC, connected through wireless. When I transfer data from PC to USB shared storage on the router the speed seems normal while it goes awful when I do the opposite. The average speed goes around 200kb/s to be specific. This is unbelievable as it is year 2013. What could be the problem preventing the speed? Anyone helps?

We need more information here. What is the operating system of your computer? Are you trying to transfer files wired or wirelessly connected to the network? What's the adapter in your computer and what is the storage device that you are using?

  • WRT610N Shared Storage

    I recently purchased a WRT610N and have been having some problems setting up the USB shared storage feature.  I have a 1.5 Terabyte Seagate drive that I have created two partiions on (I had read elsewhere in the forums that the WRT610N only handled partitions/dirves up to 1 TB).  Both partitions are NTFS with the first one being 976,561 GB and the second one being 420,700 GB. Both drives show up in the "Disk" section of the admin console and I can create/define a share for the larger of the two partitions without any problems. 
    The first of my problems comes when I try to create/define a share for the smaller partition.  I can create a share but the admin console does not save the access privleges that I assign to it.  Despite setting them up in the admin console they don't show up when I go back and look (in both the detail and summary views) the Access rights show as blank.  I do not have this issue with the larger partition where I can add and later view groups in the Access section.
    The second problem comes when I try to attach to the larger share from a network client.  I can look at the shares if I use ..........Start - Run - and Type \\192.168.1.1.  If I enter in my admin User ID and password, I can see the new share on the WRT610N.  When I try to double click on it, I am then pompted again for a Username & Password,  When I try to re-enter the admin user ID and password, the logon comes right back to me with "WRT610n\admin" populated in the User ID field.  From there it won't accept the admin password.  There are no error messages.
    Help with either problem would be appreciated.

    When you select your Storage partition and open it, and if it ask you for the Username and Password, thats the username and password is of your storage drive, Might be you must have set some password for your storage drivers.
    Login to your Routers GUI. and click on the Storage Tab and Below you will find the Sub tab "Administration" click on it, if you wish you can Modify the "admin" rights, Like change the password or else you can Create your Own User and password. So whenever you login to your Storage Partition, and it ask for the username and password then you can input that username and password and click OK. This way you will be able to access your Storage Driver. 

  • USB Mass Storage Mode Missing :-(

    I just upgraded? to the Samsung Galaxy S III today and have been very happy for the most part.  However...
    I am EXTREMELY disappointed that the only options to transfer files to the phone/SD Card are to use the MTP and Photo protocols.  I always loved my Android phone...built off of open source software...and using open standards (things like USB Mass Storage).  It is incredibly useful to be able to plug my phone into almost any PC, running any OS, and be able to transfer files to and fro.
    Where is the rest of the uproar?  When are we going to demand that one of the most useful features on our phone be put back.  It was already there...it was already working...and has been dropped for lame, limited use protocols...  Why?  Who is getting paid off?  Why? 
    Bring back USB Mass Storage Mode!!!!

    It is always a good idea to do some research...  I have followed your suggestion and found that Google has two reasons for using MTP instead of USB Mass Storage.  They  are:
      1)  “A main reason for using MTP rather than for example the USB mass-storage device class (MSC) is that the latter operates at the granularity of a mass storage device block (usually in practice, a FAT block), rather than at the logical file level. In other words, the USB mass storage class is designed to give a host computer undifferentiated access to bulk mass storage, such as compact flash, rather than to a file system, which might be safely shared with the target device (except for specific files which the host might be modifying/accessing). In practice, therefore, when a USB host computer has mounted an MSC partition, it assumes absolute control of the storage, which then may not be safely modified by the device without risk of data corruption until the host computer has severed the connection.“  -sombody from Google
      --My Response - "I am totally OK with the SD card not being safe to be mounted.  During the time I choose to be connected (only when transferring files)...I DO want the PC and not the phone to be in complete control of the SD card."
    2)  “MTP is a big improvement over USB mass storage — for devices with lots of internal memory, a manufacturer no longer needs to come up with some hard partition between the USB mass storage and internal storage. Instead, they are all in one partition, with MTP providing access to the directory of media files that would normally be available through USB mass storage. This means there is no longer a need for apps on SD card for such devices, because what used to be the ‘internal SD card’ is in the same partition as where applications are stored. The storage on your device can be used for either applications or media, depending on what you want to put on it. You aren’t stuck with how much space the manufacturer decided to leave for the two areas." -somebody else from Google
      --My Response - "I am completely OK with the removable SD card being treated separately.  That is EXACTLY what I want.  I want to keep MY DATA separate and only on the removable SD card.  And all of the stuff that I don't care about...that can be easily reinstalled (apps and such) on the internal memory.  It is a good design.  The phone has enough internal memory that I don't have any trouble with space for Apps (so not a conern at all)."
      --My Overall Response - "The loss of flexibility, portability, and usefullness does NOT come close to justifying removal of the USB Mass Storage protocol.  I am still VERY disappointed."
    Where is the THUMBS DOWN... and INCORRECT ANSWER?

  • WRT600N - Network Sharing / Storage Issues

    I recently bought a WRT600N v1.0 from Dell.com and configured the router (I'm a CCNP, so I've been using routers, etc.. for years). I had a WRT54GS v1.0 before this and that worked great for years.
    The WiFi (both 5GHz and 2.4GHz) has been rock solid on the WRT600N, but my issue is with the network sharing/storage (NAS) part of the router.
    I plugged in a Seagate USB 2.0 750GB HDD (already formatted to NTFS using Windows Vista). I was able to create folders and share them out. However, I cannot map a drive to about half of the folders. All folders are set up the exact same way, and even those I can map a drive to.. the network performance copying files to those shares is horrible (even over Gigabit Ethernet). I'm talking like 1MB/s, when I was getting 20MB/s using my old solution.
    When I formatted the disk using the WRT600N, it only allowed me to format it to FAT, not even FAT32 or NTFS. Then it would still only work half the time.
    Any ideas?
    This seems like a FW issue, like many brand new Linksys products. I've already contacted Linksys support and they don't have a beta FW available to resolve this either.

    Have you fixed your issues with the storage feature of this router...?  I recently bought the WRT600N router and the SAME exact Seagate HD for the storage link feature.  I have spent over 15 hours numerous phone calls to Linksys Techs and My Computer Works Techs and NOTHING doing, it still does not work right.
    I have set up my drive and I to had to FORMAT using the FAT system of the router per one of the Linksys Supervisor Techs.  I did this and set up everything related to my drive and MAPPED all my drives...  I have access to all the drives at first and can move files around and delete from the network.
    I wait for a few minutes and open a NEW program and try to SAVE to the network drive location and  get "You Need Permission to Preform This Action.  Try Again or Cancel" are the only options I get and NO REQUEST for a paswsword is given.  I am administrator and cannot now access my drive / network...
    The TECH's for MCW are puzzled as well as they initially set the drive and Share folders up.  They cannot figure out why there continues to be a problem accessing the folders on the drive. 
    I spent 2 1/2 hours tonight on the phone with LinkSys and got really no healp only try this and try that.  While experiencing the problems with the tech on the phone, I preformed a REFRESH on the Storage / Disk page and ALL Share Files I created Disappeared.  I looked physically at my router and discovered the USB was now out...Why?  The TECH thought is was a loose connection.  NEW Router and NEW HD.  Both are in a secure location and no one around to touch them.  I could not get the router to discover the HD plugged into the USB location so I finally unplugged it and plugged it back in.
    All setting remained and the router came back up without what seemed to be any hitches.  At this point, I played with the configuration settings while on what seemed like eternal hold and FINALLY got access to the NETWORK drives and was able to save to all the partitions that were created.
    The Tech decided that all was OK and we disconnected and guess what...  I again tried to SAVE to the a partition and "You Need Permission to Preform This Action.  Try Again or Cancel" came up again.
    I am TRULY frustrated with this NEW SETUP and don't know what to do now.  Can anyone help me fix this thing to make it work right????? 
    One thing you will learn about LinkSys, is that they have the best prodcuts out there..but if you buy a first generation product (such as the WRT600N), it will have issues that will take firmware updates to resolve the problems. The best thing is to report the issues and wait a few months until several firmware updates come out to resolve the problems.
    I recently installed the latest FW update and my WRT600N has been acting "better", but still needs a few more FW updates to fix the other stability issues. I'm fully prepared to wait it out, but it is unfortunate that we have to wait anything out...as LinkSys Q/A should have caught these bugs prior to product release and had them fixed then.
    I've tried products from NetGear, Belkin, etc.. and all of them are horrible. At least LinkSys products work once the FW updates come out. I just hope you never need to contact LinkSys support as they are horrible.
    Here's my configuration:
    - WRT600N v1.0
    - Latest FW
    - Seagate 750GB USB 2.0 External HDD formatted to NTFS using Windows Vista
    - Shared folders created using WRT600N
    - Media Server Enabled (still does not work with my Playstation 3)
    - File write performance, still horrible..even over Gigabit Ethernet (around 200KB/s, should be around 4-5MB/s at least)
    - File share mapping, still intermittent.. usually works.. but I noticed it seems to be case senstitive in mapping the drive names (odd)
    - Should have an option to format the HDD as FAT, FAT32 or NTFS (only FAT is used currently)

  • NAS Problems! Maxtor Shared Storage II not accepting long file names

    Somebody help me!!!! Maxtor Shared Storage II. can't accept beyond certain filename length. And Maxtor says its Mac compatible. What a bull! Now, is there a way for me to do it via ethernet? Or do I have to use a usb cable with matching ends? And once I've reformat it, will everything works just as fine as well? I mean all the capability of the RAID and network?
    Cheers!

    Thanks for the technical jargon thingy – the hatter – I've been spending the couple of my sleepless hours finding out about the problem that I have came across that FAT32 thingy numerous times.
    Next month I'll be turning 32. Lucky for me, I'm not FAT and make sure I won't otherwise I start becoming 'Mac-unfriendly' even though I'm definitely am very compatible.

  • Suggestions on how to connect iMac *directly* to Maxtor Shared Storage?

    i know that using Time Machine to back up to my Maxtor Shared Storage over my network isn't an option right now... So in the meantime, I would like to just connect my Maxtor drive directly to my iMac -- but I can't figure out how.
    There is no way to connect it via USB, and there is no firewire port. The Apple guy at Best Buy said to use the ethernet cable to connect the external hard drive to my iMac, but I can't get my iMac to recognize the drive that way.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    Right now my Maxtor drive is connected via a router no problem... But In order to use Time Machine, the drive needs to be directly (via cable,etc) connected to my iMac...
    There is no firewire port on my Maxtor drive.
    I did go to Best Buy (and Office Max, and Office Depot) to buy a USB cable... The cable I need doesn't exist... For example they are like this:
    http://www.coolgear.com/images/as340823as.jpg
    But BOTH my iMac and Maxtor drive have ports that take the USB cable-end shown on the left in the image above. There is no cable that is the same on both ends...
    So, how do I get my computer to recognize/mount my Maxtor drive when I connect it directly to the iMac via ethernet cable (that is what the Apple guy at Best Buy told me to do)? I can't find anything at all in the Maxtor documentation about this...
    Thanks for reading...

  • USB Mass Storage Device - ?

    Shuffle shows up as a USB Mass Storage Device under the drive (USB Port) i plug it into.
    It will not take an update or reformat.
    Wondering if it is possible that the factory format could be erased and now the unit is just being recognized as a storage device and unable to be used in the manner it was originally intended for...MUSIC.?
    What does it mean when you get a message "Media in Drive - Changed" ?
    Fixed many other ipods in past but only one shuffle so far....now this one has me going...no clue what else i can do to it.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    i think it was trying to read the shuffle when i wanted to format and restore.
    i never did get it to work.
    no way of knowing now..i just got through tearing into this one to make one good shuffle out of the two i was working on.
    all was good till i went to put the slide bar on/off switch back on....broke the switch again.
    do you have a switch?
    thanks

  • USB Mass Storage device problem

    Hello, I cant use my USB mass storage device in my computer, it is a SanDisk ImageMate CF/SM unit, which works perfectly in every other computer I have tried it, but in this one it hangs while accessing the device, and in linux, it hangs while mounting it (the same thing).
    I dont know what might the problem be but some other people have seen the same problem, perhaps someone here can help me.

    Yeah, I though so, but first I wanted to know what might be causing this incompatibility, in the linux posts people have said that it is a nForce2 generic problem, perhaps a big nvidia bug? heh

  • USB Mass Storage Device won't Eject/Unmount

    My brother bought a Sanyo ICR-B180NX digital voice recorder last year to use with his iBook. It was working very well up until about August of 2005. At that point, the recorder would mount on the desktop, and he could get all the files off (it records direct to MP3 format rather than WMV, so he can edit his files very easily), but when it came time to eject it, the device icon would disappear and then immediately re-appear on the desktop. The display on the voice recorder remained static at the "Connect" screen.
    I believe this happened in conjunction with some sort of OS update, as it was a "sudden" thing. We can't quite recall what happened between the times it worked and the time it stopped working.
    I have tried the device on a PC, and it works the way it should, so I don't believe there's anything wrong with it.
    Now, I know the system requirements on the website say that you must have Windows, but a statement from a support company (we returned it to the place where we got it, and they sent it out for repairs, and it came back with a letter) states that the device does act as a generic Mass Storage device, and thus may work with most systems.
    All my other USB storage devices (ie. SanDisk 12-in-1 card reader, SanDisk Cruzer Titanium 2GB, iPod Photo), and FireWire devices (ie. WiebeTech TrayDock Extreme) work fine and unmount fine.
    Does anyone know of any changes to the way Mass Storage devices are ejected in the current iteration of the OS? I haven't had a chance to test the device under an older OS, but will soon.
    Alternately, if anyone has any suggestions regarding replacements (not really looking forward to that, given this recorder cost almost $300CAD), let me know. We need a device that can plug in via USB and transfer files to his iBook which he can edit together (he's a newspaper reporter in training, and needs to edit the interviews to take out such things like dead air, etc).
    Thanks!

    Hi
    +USB mass storage device. An error occurred during the installation of the device the data is invalid+
    This typical error message appears if the installation of external USB devices failed.
    Why? This is not easy to say
    What you could do firstly is to clean your registry using the freeware software called CCleaner (Google for that).
    Install it and clean your OS and the registry entries.
    After cleaning access the device manager and remove all USB root hubs and all USB Host controllers from the device list and reboot the notebook.
    New reboot should cause a new installation of USB drivers.
    Finally try to connect and try to install your external USB devices again.

  • Windows 7 64-bit not loading USB mass storage driver

    I have a rather strange problem with my Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit.  Everything seems to work fine except for USB mass storage devices.  I have USB keyboard, mouse and even a USB audio (wireless headset) all working fine on the computer.  But
    any USB external drive, thumdrive or USB card reader with flash cards inserted into the USB port of my computer won't work.
    Windows keeps reporting that it is unable to find the driver.  When I go into the Device Manager console and choose to manually update the driver, then point it to the C:\Windows (with search for sub-directories enabled), it detects the USB Mass Storage
    driver but complains that it is unable to load it.  The exact message is this:  Windows found driver software for your device but encountered error while attempting to install it.  USB Mass Storage Device.  The system cannot find the file
    specified.
    This happens to ALL USB Mass storage device, and it doesn't matter which port I plug the device into.
    Here's the weird thing, I have VMware Workstation installed on this computer and if I power on a VM that runs Windows 7 32-bit as the Guest OS and connect the USB storage devices to the guest OS via VMware Workstation, the USB storage devices work!
    So it would appear that the USB ports are functioning properly but for some reasons, my Windows 64-bit is unable to load the driver.
    Any idea how to fix this besides a "nuke it from orbit" and format/reinstall Windows?
    Thanks.

    I'm very excited to finally have a solution for this problem. Thank You Balaji for figuring this out. I've been struggling with this for a number of years, and had only one USB Hard Drive that worked. I too have VMware workstation, and had the missing files
    in "c:\windows\inf." I can say with certainty that I did not delete the files from that folder, but something is common in both of our situations. Maybe it has to do with VMware, and some of it's updates over the years. I'm also using nCompute to share out
    a networked desktop via the wire. 
    One more thing worthy of mention is this machine was an update from Windows Vista, and the USB hard drive that worked was configured back than. So although I could never add another HD, at least I had the one.
    Now with having copied over the files, I can plugin other USB enclosures with different drives and they too are working.
    Like you mentioned, it was always possible to use USB devices within my Virtual Machines, so it was clear that the USB ports were functional. I actually got the files from a clean Windows 7 VM, copying out the \windows\inf folder and doing a compare between
    the the real one and the virtual one. I found the two missing files you mentioned, along with 8 others. I went ahead and included them all in your fix.
    It worked, Amazing. Thanks again. :O)

  • In the old Mobile me storage I had shared storage for my family and all of our devices. How do I breakup the 55GB across my apple accounts now that iCloud is by device by user?

    In the old Mobile me storage I had shared storage for my family and all of our devices. How do I breakup the 55GB across my apple accounts now that iCloud is by device by user? Anyone else have this issue. I am also in need of correcting the storage from my work where I do not have Safari or I can not down load iCould to my desk top.

    That storage moves to master account. Since there are no accounts like that in Icloud, people in your family will enjoy complimentary 5 gigs from Apple and they will let you know if they need anymore. You will not be able to manage storage from windows desktop

  • Is Shared storage provided by VirtualBox better or as good as Openfiler ?

    Grid version : 11.2.0.3
    Guest OS           : Solaris 10 (64-bit )
    Host OS           : Windows 7 (64-bit )
    Hypervisor : Virtual Box 4.1.18
    In the past , I have created 2-node RAC in virtual environment (11.2.0.2) in which the shared storage was hosted in OpenFiler.
    Now that VirtualBox supports shared LUNs. I want to try it out. If VirtualBox's shared storage is as good as Openfiler , I would definitely go for VirtualBox as Openfiler requires a third VM (Linux) to be created just for hosting storage .
    For pre-RAC testing, I created a VirtualBox VM and created a Stand alone DB in it. Below test is done in VirtualBox's LOCAL storage (I am yet to learn how to create Shared LUNs in Virtual Box )
    I know that a datafile creation is not a definite test to determine I/O throughput. But i did a quick Test by creating a 6gb tablespace.
    Is the duration of 2 minutes and 42 seconds acceptable for a 6gb datafile ?

    well once i experimented with Openfiler and built a 2-node 11.2 RAC on Oracle Linux 5 using iSCSI storage (3 VirtualBox VMs in total, all 3 on a desktop PC: Intel i7 2600K, 16GB memory)
    CPU/memory wasnt a problem, but as all the 3 VMs were on a single HDD, performance was awful
    didnt really run any benchmarks, but a compressed full database backup with RMAN for an empty database (<1 GB) took like 15 minutes...
    2 VMs + VirtualBox shared disk on the same single HDD provided much better performance, still using this kind of setup for my sandbox RAC databases
    edit: 6 GB in 2'42" is about 37 MB/sec
    with the above setup using Openfiler, it was nowhere near this
    edit2: made a little test
    host: Windows 7

    Now i dont know much about Openfiler, maybe i messed up something, but i think its quite good, so i wouldnt use a 3rd VM just for the storage.

Maybe you are looking for
