Another way exists.
If somebody not familiar with compilers, but fun_plug (or similiar) toolset installed, you can do:
(instruction for fun_plug)

1. put this script to /ffp/sbin, name it /ffp/sbin/fanspeed.sh

#!/bin/sh
case $1 in
        l)
                /sys/crfs/sbin/fanspeed l
                ;;

        h)
                /sys/crfs/sbin/fanspeed l
                /sys/crfs/sbin/fanspeed h
                ;;

        s)
                /sys/crfs/sbin/fanspeed s
                ;;

        g)
                /sys/crfs/sbin/fanspeed g
                ;;
        *)
                /sys/crfs/sbin/fanspeed $1

esac

do command:

chmod a+x /ffp/sbin/fanspeed.sh

Place another script to /ffp/start, name it /ffp/start/systune.sh

#!/bin/sh
cp -f /ffp/sbin/fanspeed.sh /tmp/
ln -s -f /tmp/fanspeed.sh /usr/sbin/fanspeed

do command:

chmod a+x /ffp/start/systune.sh

after it - reboot you DNS-343 or do command once:

/ffp/start/systune.sh

yes, this is the cause of the hang
if you are uncomfortable using this 'hack', you can email dlink for the beta firmware
the beta firmware does more or less the same thing

does this fix the dns-343 constant freeze problem?

So the problem is due to the fan speed control component?

edit: ok seems like this is worth a try. I am so sad that dlink is not doing anything to solve this problem.

Is there any way to fix this issue without hacking the firmware?

it's OLED not LCD and you can't directly update the temperature readings,
they are written to 3 files (/tmp/temper /tmp/temper_C /tmp/temper_F)
and OLED firmware will read them and display accordingly

try

/usr/sbin/temperature

it reads the current temperature from the sensor and writes to the 3 files
if you still see 44c, maybe it's really 44c inside or your sensor is faulty

my unit is stable at about 44-45c
during idle, fan low/stop every few minutes

if you are using DNS-343 and having this problem, please help to test and comment on my fancontrol
One question though, any idea how to update the LCD display temp?  Mine has been stuck at 44c for a long time, never changes.

negative, when you run /usr/sbin/temperature the files in /tmp are updated and OLED should change,
hence i would suspect that you OLED firmware might be having problem

try flashing your firmware again (1.03 or 1.04 beta)
the oled part is flash after the main firmware (after reboot)
maybe your oled firmware didn't get flashed properly that last time

Strange, my /tmp/temper etc are updated correctly, it does not seem to be reading on the OLED however.  At rest it was at 38c/100f but still showing 44c/111f on the display...  Might there be some sort of cron that is updating that stopped running on mine?  I have all sorts of reboot issues so I can been up running for a few weeks on this device.

D-LINK has also apparently addressed the issue in a BETA firmware for the DNS-343 (Version 1.04 beta03) which can be downloaded directly from here: ftp://ftp.dlink.com/Multimedia/dns343/B … 3_beta.zip and has the following changes:


Version 1.04 beta03

1. Bugfix : fixed unable to connect to 343 by using Netbios name in ADS mode.
2. Updates UPnP AV Server to support Windows 7 Media Player 12.
3. Device Lockup bugfix : Fan Control : changes design to Off -> Low -> High Speed instead of going from Off -> High when temperature reached the high speed threshold.
4. OLED warning message "DISK IS FULL" can be enabled or disabled by user.
5. Email Alert : allow user to set temperature threshold from 1% to 100%.
6. UPnP AV server bugfix : %20 is used instead of a space on all files and directories.
7. UPnP AV server bugfix : work with mpeg4.

I haven't used the beta firmware yet myself, and am going to try out timezlicer's method first as I have too much data to backup and possibly have to re-initialize my drives after.  If anyone does update the firmware, please post your results back -- and let me know if you did indeed need to re-initialize your drives after the upgrade, or if it retained the arrays as they were (doubtful).

I will also post back my experience with timezlicer's fancontrol script.
