FROM NOW ON I´LL POST UPDATES IN MY MY LAST POST :)
Hi again,
a short overview regarding the problems:
- not compatible to private trackers (which need a registration or/and use a passkey)
- settings (BitTorrent) will reset to defaults if Linkstation is reseted, rebooted or switched off
no rights to delete or cut downloaded torrent files - if the files are located in a subfolder only the files are deletable or movable (the folder/files located directly in the "bittorrent" directory are write-protected)- no security regarding the webaccess of the bittorrent download page - everybody is able to delete ongoing torrents if there is a remote access configured
- no individual torrent options regarding seed/download speed etc (thanks to "simonklinga" for reminding me)
- And is there a way to make the bittorrent download manager secure, by adding a code? (thanks to "zeecue" )
Problem with seeding finished downloads - the client stops the upload even if set to seed/upload until removed in the options (thanks to "Topolaccio" )some folders located in the bittorrent folder can´t be deleted even with the webaccess workaround- buggy drive erease (sometimes the drive has to be brought back to life with tftp because it´ll never completly boot up again - slow erease is some kind of normal cos it irreversely deletes all data on the linkstation or at least should do it)
- sometimes the configuration of webaccess ignores the port and still uses port 9000
- checkboxes to select more than just a single file or folder with webaccess (to download or delete etc)
- after or while disk erase allow at least a change of the language of the unit (mine was japanese or chinese all of sudden)
- a folder to put torrent files which is polled by the bittorrent client (no need to enter every torrent files located on the HDD or psate the link) O/AND a windows/linux/mac addon/application which links torrent filesdirectly with the Linkstation torrent client
- no logout option when exiting webaccess - which i would need...
in the forums Paul mentioned several times that a firmware update is on its way - first it was early december then it got delayed to mid december.....
we now have end december january and there is still no firmware update and the problems mentioned in the forumsstill persist!
also there is no information which issues are resolved and which are going to be ignored for the time being.
some more details would be appriciated!
well, there is still no changelog available -_-
nothing mentioned if private trackers will ever be supported.....
regards,
SilverFoX
