When will there be a firmware 1.10???

Hey folks,

is anyone of you in contact with the D-Link Support?
Is there any information on when there will be a new major firmware release for the DNS-323? D-Link spent half a year on developing the firmware from 1.00 to 1.02b - What did they do in all this time? Don´t we think its time for a new major release that does just little bit more than just fixing the most obvious bugs? Its really time for some real improvement of the lousy software on this nice box..

I am not even sure that D-Link is writing firmwares for these devices. Maybe they did hire some company do to this job because Trendnet nas devices have pretty much same firmware with same developer names inside source files.


DSM-G600 - NetBSD hdd-boot - 80GB Samsung SP0802N
NSA-220 - Gentoo armv5tel 20110121 hdd-boot - 2x 2TB WD WD20EADS

Suggestion to swamp their support portal with the bugs that has been documented so far:

According to D-Link Germany, the devices and their firmware are manufactured by another company in Taiwan, which seems to be fairly independent of D-Link. My impression is that D-Link is not involved in the process in any way, they seem to not even bother about any technical details or functionality, but just brand the stuff and sell it.

Re: When will there be a firmware 1.10???

Looking at the US versions of firmware, there is one released about every 2 months. 
From the US website:

Version 1.00 --      8/9/2006
Version 1.01b -- 10/24/2006
Version 1.02 --   12/18/2006
Version 1.02b --     2/6/2007

SO, I would expect to see a new US version after the first of April.

maybe they will fix the size limit so I can backup using retrospect once again.

Everytime it errors out on too large a file.

Could that be a Retrospect issue?

I use Acronis True Image and my 20GBytes of data compresses down to a 13GByte file on the DNS-323.

Most likely no, and the details of this issue is described in the wiki.

'Apparently files in the range 2-4Gb, 6-8Gb and 10-12Gb fails to transfer while 0-2Gb, 4-6Gb, 8-10Gb and 12-14Gb transfers ok'
