This firmware clearly has some issues - but there are several of us on here who for whom TM is working well over wireless, so while we wait for a new firmware I’d continue tweaking settings on MBW and OsX (and post some logs) to find out why it works on some systems, and not others.
With some detailed MBW and Console logs the WD staff reading this (you are there, aren’t you?!) could maybe work out what is going wrong - I know from experience it’s impossible to help anyone based on a description of the problem.
In case anyone missed my earlier post, here’s what fixed all the problems for me - no idea which steps actually helped!
Os X
-
Complete permissions repair from recovery disk, NOT within a normal session.
-
Run Keychain First Aid (in Keychain access menu
NAS:
-
Disable HDD standby
-
Changed password for user wd_backup
-
Corrected NAS time setting
I’m also using a static IP, no NTP service, ftp & afp enabled, ssh disabled, nfs enabled with an “*” (wildcard) in the “IP allowed” field.
Good luck!
