MBL not accessible with WD2go when in sleep mode

WD Legacy Products My Book Live

I can access my shares trough WD2go, but only when MBL is awake.

When MBL is accessed when it is in sleep mode, the webpage times out and I checked the status of the MBL: the led stays blue so it does not wake up.

Not much use that way…

Anyone with a solution ?

Hi, from the my book dashboard you can disable the sleep mode. Page 64 of the manual.

Hi,

I am well aware of the possibility to disable the sleep mode, but MBL wakes up when a PC is connected to the network, so why should it not wake up when it is being poked by WD2go ? Wouldn’t that be more logical than disabeling sleep mode when I am not at home ?
