    WLAN and HDD

    Hi , guys

    Been using the box for just over a fortnight and must say I'm very happy with the box, it's speed and picture quality are great.

    But I do have 2 small niggles

    1. WLAN , I have configured the WLAN using a dongle previous in use on my NANO 3T , set up no problem , but it seems to drop the connection as soon as I use E-Channeliser or try to FTP to the box, the only way to re-establish connectivity is to 're-start' the network via the menu

    2. I had a 1Tb internal disk fitted by WOS , again no problems , recording playback etc all fine , except it seems to be configured as an 'external' drive!

    So I was wondering if?

    The WLAN dongle and HDD are clashing on the USB 'bus' and if I re-configured the HDD as an internal drive if this would sort out the issue

    Else I could just buy a longer LAN cable and hard wire the box to the router

    Any help or thoughts greatly appreciated

    Cheers
    Nige

    Why do you think it's configured as an external usb drive, it'll be a sata connection.

    Maybe because it's formatted as EXT4, which is what it should be.
