Lose Network Connection Over and Over--Have to Restart

Hi,

My DNS-323 has been working well until recently when it will lose connection on my network every 10 minutes or so.  It has a static IP address and I am using version 1.07.  I have to either restart or turn it off and on and then it is good for another 10 minutes or so, very annoying.  It doesn't matter whether I am using Volume 1 or 2 which are both Hitachi 1TB drives.  Has anyone else experienced this problem and can please give me advice?  Or is my DNS-323 going south?  I turned hard drive hibernation off thinking that was the problem, but that didn't improve things.  I also changed ethernet cables and plugged the DNS-323 from the switch to the router thinking my switch was faulty (even though the other 7 devices work well on it) and that did not help either.

In the meantime I am moving all of the files off the DNS-323 to my new Promise SmartStor NS4600, restarting the DNS-323 over and over again.

Thanks.

Re: Lose Network Connection Over and Over--Have to Restart

I have a similar problem.
Do you mean the Internet connection, or LAN connection also? I keep losing my Internet connection (DHCP & ADSL). LAN access, however, is never lost. I have two other PCs connected to the same router/ADSL modem and they do not suffer from this problem.

This is not a method of repair, but have you tried clicking the "Save settings" button in the browser based admin interface (if you have LAN access, obviously)? When you login as admin, it's under Setup-LAN. I just press "Save settings" without changing anything and it works for a while (not sure exactly how long), and just stops working.

The connection is totally lost? No Samba, WebAdmin and ping?

Re: Lose Network Connection Over and Over--Have to Restart

sounds like you have a app running which fills the filesystem on flash (like twonky). bad idea.

Yes the connection is totally lost and I am not running twonky on the 323 or any other plugin or RAID.  My laptop is hard wired to the network as is the DNS-323.

Re: Lose Network Connection Over and Over--Have to Restart

I recenlty upgraded to FW 1.07, and I had a similar problem.  Turns out inotify_itunes, and inotify_pnp, were eating up my CPU.  I searched dlink forum, and I found an thread acknowleding problem.  Fix is to disable iTunes, and  UPNP through web admin.  You will problem need to reboot and login to disable iTunes and UPNP server.
