Pipo10,
Hopefully the two changes you list will fix problems for a number of people.
I am running Vista Home Premium, XP Pro, and Windows 2000 on three computers. Vista is the only one giving me network share disconnection problems now. I do not see the two services you named in “Services” under Administration Tools in the Control Panel. Do you know whether they can be accessed in Vista?
Meanwhile, I just read about a new competitor to the WDTV Live, the Seagate FreeAgent Theater+™ HD media player. Sounds like it does everything the WDTV Live does, and doesn’t do some things we would like the WD to do, like connect to Netflix. A review I read says the unit does connect to the network shares, and doesn’t mention dropping the connection. We’ll have to wait to see how responsive Seagate is to the other issues expressed in the reviews. Let’s hope it’s better than WD has been.
