No settings for http and ctorrent in downloader tool

[norbertessel]

Dear All,

After entering the downloader tool web-interface the manual says, there should be tabs for “http/ftp” and “ctorrent”.

I do not have that. After login, the screen is immediately changing to the next showing the tabs “tasks” and “settings”.

I have firmware 2.1.96, and after reading, that some people in this community have problems with the new firmware, I don’t necessarily want to upgrade.

Also I have read, that there in an article, that there should also be a “copy manager”, which I can’t find.

Also one more question: Is it possible to access the downloader feature through the net, to start downloads remotedly?

MIO Net is not installed, since I have problems with my computer.

Thanks for your replies,

Norbert

PS: I have by mistake posted this also in the “My Book” section. Could an admin please remove the other post.

Sorry and thank you.

If you wanna access the downloader in the first screen when you access the NAS you will be able to see the tool button. It has a drop down menu that you can select where you want to access.

You will have different options to select :

1. NSM

2. Downloader

3. Copy Manager

Once you access Downloader you need to select Task. In task you will be able to customize your downloads.

About the copy manager it is actually the same thing.

And so for the Copy Manager.

You will not be able to access the Downloader tool from Mionet unless you have a Premium account.

Hope this help !!

I would recommend updating the firmware to the newest version and then applying the speed patch, which is currently sticked to the top of this forum. (or go here: http://wdc.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/wdc.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=5754

Peformance actually increases with this patch. However, it disables samba server signing (this won’t affect most basic home users).

Then you will have clear access to Ctorrent.

Hello,

So, I took the risk, and upgraded the firmware and patch.

Had no problem, also performance increased around 20%. Not much, but at least.

Anyway, I have access to ctorrent now, but I don’t have an option for the copy manager.

How can this be? I thought, with the new firmware everything will be installed?

Or did I just overlook something to activate?

Thanks for your help,

Norbert
