I have the same issue. When I use anonymous torrents it works fine, but when I use torrents that require an account; the torrents dont download at all.

Ok, I have forced the update as suggested. It still doesn't work.

Hi,

same problem here.

Trying to add a torrent from site which requires login and the torrent won´t start.

When I use anonymous torrents it works fine, but when I use torrents that require an account; the torrents dont download at all!

Firmware Version: 1.01-0.43 (Forced firmwareupdate as said in other posts)

Language set to: English (even though my native language is German)

Help is appriciated since I bought it for that reason -_-

regards,

This is a new feature provided by Buffalo, I will escalate the issue and see if we can push out a firmware that will fix this issue.

Thank you for your fast reply

Looking forward to the firmware update which hopefully also addresses the possibility to cut/delete/paste files/folders within the bittorrent folders.

I hope to hear something soon concerning a firmware update soon.

same here - it is not the only problem regarding the bittorrent client...

To Paul:

another problem is that after switching the Linkstation off, waiting 5 minutes and power it on again all settings regarding the torrent client are lost (port, bandwith management and seeding) - a bit annoying when i forget to set them up again and try to play Left4Dead while having the bittorrent client download a new game demo etc -_-

FYI, I did report the problem concerning non-sticky preferences for the Bittorrent Client to support two weeks ago.

After playing around with the Bittorrent feature on the LS-CHL, it's placed several "bittorrent" folders on my drive.  I disabled the Bittorrent feature.  Then I tried to delete these folders and got the "Make sure the folder is not in use or write protected".  Argh!  Does anyone know how I can delete these folders?  I've rebooted several times. 

By playing around with where I wanted the bittorrent folder, the Linkstation's literred my drive with a ton of these folders.  In addition, I renamed one folder with a capital B and Linkstation created another folder which seems to be a shortcut to the other.  Help!

Unfortunately I have experienced the same problem. If you connect via SMB to the Linkstation you can delete the folders, but it takes FOREVER!

In fact, if you do a drive reset and format the entire unit, it takes days...and I do mean days.

Unfortunately there is no facility for deleting from the Linkstation via an internal file manager.
