After the latest (4/19, I think) firmware update, my PR4100 won’t stay in standby mode. It goes into standby mode, but then wakes up regularly throughout the day–even though it’s not being accessed by any of my devices.
Before updating the firmware, it was working fine and only coming out of standby when I connected to it or during its scheduled 3:00 AM update check.
It’s driving me nuts because it’s sitting right next to my workspace. Any advice for getting it to work properly like it was before?
Thanks. I’ll try turning off Cloud Access to see if that helps. However, I had this enabled with the last firmware and it was working OK then, so I’m skeptical…
Thanks, I just turned off PIP and will see if this resolves the issue. Is this turned on by default when the firmware is updated? I recall opting OUT of it when I first set up the drive.
Well, turning off PIP didn’t help. Something about this latest firmware version just doesn’t want my NAS to stay in standby mode too long. I also have no apps (like Plex) installed, so nothing else to turn off to try and fix the issue–unless I turn off media streaming, which defeats the purpose of having this NAS in the first place.
I can’t turn off DLNA because I’m using this as a DLNA Server. That’s like someone complaining that their hard drive is too loud and your suggestion is to just turn it off.
