Nonstop (so far) networking issues

If anyone can provide any insight into (1) how to keep my 2 WD products communicating reliably over the network or (2) how to maintain a wireless connection to the WD TV without rebooting the router every day, it would be greatly appreciated and might save a little black box from harm!

Thanks for reading!


I would use linux shares to communicate between your 2 WD products. Since I did that I have never had network problems. You can always install haneWin NFS server on your windows PCs and use linux shares throughout if you wish. In my experience they are very stable.

As for your wireless connections issues sorry I can’t help, I have a 5 year old netgear router and have never had connections issues. It serves 2 PCs and a NAS hard wired, plus 2 laptops, android tablet, 2 smart TVs, blu-ray player, printer, 2 smart phones as well as the WDTV wirelessly (is that a word!?)

But try linux shares, see if that helps
