LS-WXL: Torrent Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property '262' of null

[AdamPD]

Hi all,

So I've got myself a second hand LS-WXL off of ebay, works perfectly well except for the bittorrent program
I'm running the latest firmware:
Name:
LS-WXL458
Firmware version:
1.71
(DTCP-IP:1.65-20130731)

The problem is when I try and use a torrent from a private tracker, I get the following error:

[10:12:59] JS error: [778] Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property '262' of null

I download the torrent file, then add it manually via the interface, as the website it's from requires a username/password to download (but not to connect with)

I did some google searching and found this on utorrent.com:

I believe this odd error is what you get when you are running an older libc6 library. It's what I got when I had libc 2.6 in play. You either need to update libc (not for the feint of heart usually) or just get to a newer release of linux. Or go back to one of the earlier releases. There was an older 64 bit exe I used for a while that was linked against an older libc.

Is that something that can be done on a Buffalo LS-WXL?

Private trackers won't work with this version of BT.

Ah I thought as much, is there a way to update it? or would I have to install that debian slack distro stuff I've read about?

Bingo ;-)
