Good Morning to all,
This is my story... I just bought the DNS-323 a few days ago.. I set up corretly following dlink instructions..i guess!!!
However, the streamin speed is quite slowww.. this is my configuration..
iTunes 8 for mac.
powerbook G4 old i know>!!!
DNS 323 - 1 HD - Western digital - 500GB ...
I mapped the DNs 323 to the powerbook and configure iTunes to it.. so the main library is the DNS but over the air..or wireless..
Except when i play a song take 5 to 8 second to play and it crashes a lot... Mac os X 10.5.4 -- LEOPARD..
same when play the next song take another 5 to 6 second..
so i'm about to returned and go wired (external HD) but i found this web site ...you guys can probably help me..
I was thinking to buy more computer memory because (i have) 1.5 buy another 1 gb and USB wireless N ... but I don't know yet..
please help me HeLP>>> thank you so much ...
one more thing-
I have DIR-655 and verizon FIOS

Please help .. today is the last day to decide.. whether i keep it or returned..
once again thank you so much!

Check your router. I have a Netgear 614 WiFi/internet router(or 624, not @home to check). I was not able to get much throughput until I moved the DNS323 out to a hub.
In my case, the router had issues with traffic control (being a simple dumb router) when both items were attached to it. Only one device can talk at a time; the stops and fits were maddening.
I don't know the exact magic behind moving the NAS out to a hub, but my performance greatly increased. See if you can try that out.
I've heard that the newer routers, especially the Gb models, have a good bit of intelligence built in, so that may help your situation.

I have the DIR 655 and have no issues with mine. I actually stream movies over a wirless G bridge to another network. Anyway, the wireless draft N is probably your problem. Keep in mind it is called draft N for a reason. The protocol has not been finalized, so there can be incompatabilities. How is your performance on the Gbit wired connection?
Wireless itself is plagued by interference...

Hi,
I have the same problem with slow access to the volume in my DNS-323.
I have setup the DNS-323 to connect to DIR-655 on the ethernet port 1. My PC is connected wireless to DIR-655 using Dlink GWL-120. I have PC Tools firewall on my PC and I am using Windows XP Pro SP2.
I have also setup my firewall such that it allows all traffic to my DNS-323.
But I am still experiencing very slow connection to view the content of the volume in my DNS-323 through Windows Explorer. It takes more than 20 secs to list the content.
Opening an avi file is also slow using KMPlayer and Windows Media Player. I have to wait for about a minute or so for it to load. And sometimes it will hang the player.
What have I not do or did that the performance is slow?
Thanks.
