Router Firmware Version V1.0.5.8

After last update, firmware notes tell that now it supports the v1.18.3 Plex Server.

 

But as you can see in the attachment, this is not happening.

Done restart few times, enable/disable update, and Plex, the newest update didn't come.

  • Have you tried to downgrade the firmware and see if ready share started to work again?

      I have the same problem as stated by a few, readyshare stops working after firmware upgrade to V1.0.5.8. I even factory reset the router after the upgrade and readyshare still wasnt working correctly. For me the share shows up but unable to folders on the shared u: drive. I also tried to change the security / permission to use the admin credentials, still no luck.

      So i had to revert to the previous firmware V1.0.5.2 nd now everything is back to normal. 

      I hope an admin sees our issue and have the firmware fixed.

        Yeah, readyshare it's broken.

        I did the downgrade on firmware too. Everything it's ok now.
