Transmission permission denied on model 104
Hi, I have a problem with Transmission; everything start when I changed the Internet Provider. I changed the DNS but when I start the download after few mb I receive the error: permission denied...
You should try randomizing your port instead of using the default port. Some ISPs block traffic on specific ports. Don't use 6881-6889
I tried, but nothing.
I believe the problem is not the connection because the download start.
Everything stop when reach 4 mb, it seems is not able to write on the disk but everything is set up in the correct way (it was working before the Internet Provider change)

Try installing a torrent program on a PC and see if that fails too.
Also check to see if upnp is enabled on the router.
That of course was the first thing that I tried; I have installed utorrent on a PC and works perfect.
In my opinion is not a matter of connection but it's something related to the NAS.
The download start correctly but after 4mb it stop and give the error.
Looking at the Incomplete folder I don't see any new folder created; look like it's impossible to write on the disk but the set up is correct

If it's writing the first 4 MB, then transmission is writing to the disk. And there is no way the permissions magically changed when you switched to a new ISP.
So either the ISP switch is just coincidental, or we've been looking for the problem in the wrong place.
When you changed ISPs did you get a new router?
