WRT600N USB Storage Problems Solved
For a couple of years, I've been living with all the problems others have reported with the WRT600N USB storage - lost connections, permissions problems, rebooting the router to recover access to the USB drive, etc. I solved my problems, mostly, by switching to a DLink DIR-655 router. I assume other routers in the Dlink family that support USB devices will perform similarly.
My main problem seemed to be interference from the microwave, which is in an open kitchen/keeping room arrangement in my house. However, the bottom line is that any time I lost wireless connectivity to the router, due to the microwave or unknown causes, I'd lose access to the USB drive. This meant a trip upstairs to power cycle the router and the USB drive several times a day.
With the Dlink, I still sometimes lose wireless connectivity due to the microwave or unknown causes, but not as often. Sometimes, but not always, this will cause me to lose the USB drive access. If I do need to reboot the router, I can do so from the web based interface, something that was not possible with the WRT600N, so no more trips upstairs to perform this operation. I also find have a stronger wireless signal in my work location with the Dlink.
Dlink uses a SharePort software utility to manage the USB connection and this has to be installed on all PC's that want access to the USB device. SharePort makes a USB device appear to be a local device attached directly to the computer you're using and you can attach external drives/printers/probably USB hubs. (I've experimented only with an external USB drive.) Because of this, however, only one computer can attach to the USB device at a time - not a problem for me, but you need to be aware. The software has a mechanism for requesting access to the USB device from one computer, when the device is in use by another computers. You can also set it to automatically connect to the USB device if its available, to try a reconnect if connection is lost, and to automatically run a program when the USB device connects. Dlink says SharePort will support FAT or NTFS formatted drives and there's no known limitation on the drive size.
Dlink support doesn't seem much better than here - it took about three weeks for me to get an answer on the external drive size and formatting options. There are plenty of complaints on the Dlink support site about poor support, poor performance of SharePort, etc. So, all I can say is their router/USB device sharing has worked much better for me than my Linksys WRT600N ever worked.
Welcome to the WRT600N nightmare. The Storage Link is poorly documented, and the firmware controlling it has issues. Basically, it will corrupt file date/times stamps whenever you copy files onto the attached drive. It has also been known to be a bit flaky about maintaining the drive as a connected/mapped drive. Backup programs may have difficulty accessing the drive via Storage Link. Depending on the file format you use, you may encounter file size limitations on the Storage Link drive.
I, personally, gave up after a few days of these issues mentioned above and bought extra USB hard drives for each computer in the house rather than try and use the Storage Link as a NAS.
What O/S are you using on your computer? I can try and walk you through the setup.

I have a WD Mybook 3tb drive setup as my usb storage, and it is very unreliable. At times it works fine, but is unusble a large majority of the time. As in, it can't access a single file on the drive. It doesn't seem to be related to access either, as it sometimes happens under heavy usage, other times accessing a file at a time. The drive had no problems when plugged into a computer.
All of my settings are default, no secure access, no media server or ftp server, no media prioritization.I recommend trying this, it maybe trying to catalog that size of information and may take a while. Do a reset sometime at night before you go to bed, Set up the router again and enable the drive on the router. Let the router and the drive be alone over night and check back in the morning. Let the router do it's cataloging of the drive. It should be done by morning. Look at the drive light in the morning. If it's still blinking, the router maybe still accessing the drive and it's contents.
The more you put on the drive the longer it may take the router to catalog the drive and it's contents. I personally don't use USB drives on the router unless they are small drives. I prefer using wired LAN NAS for any storage solutions. -
I have ea4500 with the latest avaiable firmware. smart wi fi, I have tried several USB pens and hard disk but I cannot save a file over 3.1 mb to to the shareport device. the routers main page shows the correct storage space available, but the computer always shows 3.1 mb available I can access files saved on the stick no problem, but i cannot add files
osx mountain lion, all Usb storage device are formatted to FAT
please help me I'm desperate!!!Are you having the same issue saving files using other computers? Check if this is the case and use a windows- based computer for isolation. Is Secure Folder Access ON and have you set authorized users for your storage device? You might be using a log-in that only has read access as you are not able to add files. See Tested HDD and Printers for the EA4500. These devices are guaranteed to work with the EA4500. If your drive is not on the list, there is a slim chance that the storage feature will not work (properly).

Hey,
Just setup my E3000 router and all was good.
Connected a FAT formatted HHD to it and all went well.
Disconnected the HDD and uploaded my music and movies.
When I connect the drive and click the "Create Share" button, the dialog comes up as normal but when I hit the "Submit" button the browser shows me this message:
"Unable to load the webpage because the server sent no data."
As if I have lost connection to the router. For about a minute or two I can't access the router.
Any ideas? I'm on Mac OS X 10.6.7 if that makes any difference.
Thanks guys!I think you can try to reset the router and reconfigure it.
Press and hold the reset button on the router for 30 seconds. Release the reset button and wait for 30 seconds. Power cycle the router and reconfigure it.
Follow this link to configure the USB storage connected to the router. -

Sometimes my pc detects the tablet but I can't open the local disk assigned.
Please help meHi
Welcome To Lenovo Community
You may need to install the correct drivers for USB
http://www.tinybeetle.us/A1_USB_Driver_20110816.zip
Extract that to a folder and then point windows to that folder when it does the driver search.

Usb Hd problems [SOLVED!]
Hi guys,
I'm trying to leave the n00b status behind, and switch my distro from Ubuntu to Arch recently. I really love this distro, but the things are quite hard here. Right now I'm trying to mount a external/USB hd without sucess. This HD is working, I test it at my university, in a Debian machine.
I try a pen drive at the same usb port and it mount without problem.
Any help or advice will be appreciated. Some code follows:

I boot my machine and try to mount in Windows. And the HD does not mount!!!
So I remember that once I have a problem with "low voltage" usb ports with a cellphone. Once this HD does not have a power supply I try the back USB port and... IT WORKS! -
WRT 160nl USB Storage Problems
Hi, just got the 160nl recently.
My problem is with my 1TB Maxtor Touch (NTFS). It works well for 20min, when connected to the USB point in the router. But after that, the response of the drive is slow, streaming becomes choppy, and then eventually the drive is no longer visible.
My PC is connected with a ethernet cable. I've upgraded to the latest firmware. I've done reboots, resets, but it still works for 30 min and then later it stops responding.
Anyone else facing problems like mine?Try to reset and reconfigure the router as you have the firmware upgraded .
Also if you have any other Hard Drive try connecting that and see if the same thing happens .
What is the current firmware version on your router ? -

Zen Micro USB connection problem solv
I've been having a major problem getting my Zen Micro to work with my Dell Dimension 2400 which I understand has been causing many people the same problem - I had various posts about this on the old forums.
To recap, the problem was that XP would detect the device but WMP0 would say that there was no device attached (even though it was visible in device manager) - the Zen MTP would also not recognise it's presence even though I had the plays-for-sure firmware installed.
After lots of searching I finally found a solution and here it is:
Run REGEDIT and navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet, right click the key called ENUM and select "Permissions"
On my machine, I had a group called "Administrators" and "SYSTEM" but that's all. Click "Add" and add a new group called "Everyone" (just type it in and click "OK" to return).
Highlight the new "Everyone" group and in the lower box check the box marked "Read" - this will ensure that all users have read access to this registry hi've.
That's it - it worked for me and I'm delighted at being able to use the Zen properly now, hope this helps someone else.
Normal caveats apply, so please be careful if you make changes to the registry.gill wrote:
does the usb cable not charge aswell i think it does try taking the battery out and then pluggin the usb cable in . gill
I did that as well. Heres what happens. I take the battery out. I then plug in the USB cable and reinsert the battery. The title screen comes up and then goes to the next screen which just says "Creative" then locks up. The battery charging icon in the upper right corner does not flash to indicate that it is actually charging. I will leave it in this state for the next hour or so to see if it does anything for the battery. I suppose if I had a seperate battery charger unit, the unit would work normally. This is just a guess as I have not yet tried it.

Yet another usb key problem [solved]
i recently purchased 2 apacer 2GB usb flash drives so i could transfer my files between computers with ease and speed. i have the computer, using udev rules, recognizing the drives as i put them in, and automounting them to a /mnt directory.
couple questions about it though
1. the drives are read only, and cannot be changed from (using chmod or chown) root
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 16384 Nov 14 11:18 usb1
how can i fix this?
[root@creech ~]# ls -l /mnt
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 16384 Nov 14 11:18 usb1
[root@creech ~]# chown spookshow /mnt/usb1
chown: changing ownership of `/mnt/usb1': Operation not permitted
[root@creech ~]# chmod 777 /mnt/usb1
[root@creech ~]# ls -l /mnt
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 16384 Nov 14 11:18 usb1
[root@creech ~]#
is this possibly because it is fat16? and if so, what format should i use to make it readable across windows and linux machines?
fdisk -l

2. i want to create links on the desktop automatically so that i could easily access the drives when i plug them in, how can i do this?
udev rules file i created below (and by created i mean stole from the wiki)

thanks in advance
solution = hal + dbus (actually running) + gnome-volume-manager + small scriptbroch wrote:
I have geil 2GB transfer rate 26MB/s
assuming that you are running KDE or Gnome there is no need to modify /mnt or create any extra folders. KDE and Gnome will handle removable devices automatically
conditions:
1) running dbus/hal
2) slight changes to /etc/fstab
usbfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs noauto 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs noauto 0 0
upon inserting usb key system will automatically mount it in
/media/sdbX
where X is connected device number (if you connect more than one at a time)
in case that you close window, go to system -> storage media -> your_usb_stick
3) user added to storage group
if you are using xfce or less then get ivman it is easy to configure and works very well.
hope this will help
thanks, i will try it tonight, i had no power at my house last night due to a windstorm, hopefully this will work (i would ssh to my computer from here and set it up, but i guess i forgot to turn on ssh at home ) -

Hello,
Im trying to map a network drive, connected to my EA6300 with Read and Write permissions. I have secure folder enabled. I also changed the password of the Guest access so that im sure the PC doesnt log in with Guest/Guest. So What i do is i map a new network drive, select to log in with different credentials and then just enter the admin / my password. The PC maps the drive and i can copy files onto it, but i cant delete or move.
Please advise.
Thanks and regards
G.Hi there, gnovodvorsky. I'd like to know more about this, it's quite interesting since I was able to delete and move the files on my mapped drive. Can you post pictures on where you get the error if possible? Let's have other users join the fray. They may have aces up their sleeves we don't know about. Cheers!

[solved] USB storage devices problem
Hello everyone. I have MSI Wind U270 and recently I've moved from Ubuntu 11.04 to Arch. I really like Arch so far but I have one quite big problem and I can't find any solution, so I hope someone here could help me.
After I'd installed Arch, I tried to copy some file from/to USB flash drive. After just few seconds, transfer failed with information about I/O errors and USB flash drive disappeared along with any other USB drives connected at the same time but logitech usb mouse and keyboard continue to work.
My first thought was that it's simply broken USB drive, but same thing was happening also when I tried to move some files from/to any other USB storage device that I have.
Here is sample dmesg output after I connect device:

Next I thought – computer is broken. But it simply couldn't be true because in Ubuntu it's working.
I wanted to test if USB transfer is working in other distros, so I downloaded few and tried:
Ubuntu 11.04 – everything is working
Ubuntu 11.10 – it's not working, exactly same errors as in Arch
Ubuntu 12.04 Alpha 2 – it's not working
Mint 11 – it's working
Mint 12 – it's not working
So one thing in common that I can think of is fact that USB transfer is working in distros using kernel <3.0 and is broken in those using kernel >=3.0.
In dmesg output I can see ehci_hcd errors. When I remove this module before moving files, than everything is working fine apart from very slow transfer but it's obvious.
I really hope that someone will be able to help with my problem. I don't know if it's some bug or it's just some configuration error.
EDIT: problems were caused by rts5139 module (card reader). Blacklisting that module solved all the problems.

USB Storage devices not working with kernel in repositories [Solved]
I am experiencing a quite vexing problem with my USB Mass Storage devices, when I plug one in I get the following error in my dmesg:

In the /dev/ folder on the device shows up, not the partitions. When I try to open it with cfdisk I get "FATAL ERROR: Cannot open disk drive". I am pretty sure it iss neither a hardware problem with my laptop or my usb devices, as they both work on my dual-booted Ubuntu. My usb ports in general seem to be functioning, I can still charge a phone through them and use my built in USB webcam.
I am not sure where exactly this issue lies, it started after I upgraded to 3.0.7 (among other updates) from the normal repositories, but still persisted after I downgraded to 3.0.6.
My attempts at Googling have so far revealed mainly hardware errors, which don't seem to fit with the devices working on another OS on the same pc.
Thanks.
