I recently has to reset my router. Everything is back in working ordeer except that I cannot configure my USB drives. When I clieck edit or create network folder I get a popup with no content! See...
Sounds like something in FW is broke.
You might downgrade back to what worked.
You also should try Voxels 3rd party FW for the R9000 he develops for.
Good idea, downgrading the firmware. I just tried that but no joy. Returned to latest FW and kept trying. Evenetually if I let the empty popup "stew" for awhile, I noticed that the shares worked. Bizarre. Maybe after doing some research I'll look into the 3rd party sw you recommended. I used to run ddwrt fw on my old netgrear 54G router! Thanks.
Wondering if there is some USB enumeration hang time happening. Is there any drive LED activity when this popup window appears?
Glad it started working.
Thanks. Don't recall.
Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
