New Transmission add-on thread

I'm on the local network try to access the web interface from a standard home network 192.168.11.*.

Strange, that should work. Have you tried re-installing the add-on?

Yeah I've tried a couple times now. Tried changing the Port as well and instead of the other message I posted I get a 404 error. Thought maybe it was a security/network setup issue so tried disabling DMZing my desktop and opening everything.

404 means "not found" - so something seems to have gone completely wrong with installing the add-on (although the ReadyNAS may have said otherwise). What firmware revision is on your ReadyNAS, 5.3.1 or 5.3.2?

I think I found the problem, please donwload the new version here: http://readynasxtras.com/addons/files/a ... -0.1.5.bin and see whether this works for you. Please UNINSTALL the old version first.

Transmission has been pretty unusable on my old duo since I upgraded my drives and did a clean 4.1.7 radiator install. At first it was just horrible DL speeds and the really low number of connected peers, to the point I stopped using it for a while... (with all versions of transmission 2.1 and above, including the one that worked before the upgrade)
It got better a few weeks ago but speeds weren't great, still I decided to give it a shot again, and then it just started crashing on me repeatedly, no matter what version I use (duo runs out of memory, kills transmission).

I'm currently on the latest v2.42 and it's been 2 days since I changed the cache size from 200 MB to 8. Not only has it not crashed on me, I'm actually downloading at 1.3-1.8 MB/s, whereas it wouldn't go above 500 KB/s since the system reset.

1.3-1.8MB/s is what i see as default, but i got the NV+ and stuck a 1GB memory in it, so i suppose that does it. I'll see if i can log on to the share, and try the settings change, but for some reason it defaults to Readynas/Guest as user, and it cant be changed. (grayed out) I guess it's a issue with Windows XP x64, so i'll try and get a laptop running on the net and see if i can tweak it. Anything i can do to increase speed and stability is a good thing. Thanks for the link.
B!

Edit
My memory was wrong, it wasn't the user name that was the issue, the darn thing just didn't ant to accept the password sent as the right one. The laptop made easy work of it, and i set it to 20, for a starter test... I'm hoping to get slightly better speeds, more then some huge boost in reliability.
/Edit

Edit (Second)
Seams to do what i was hoping for it to do. I'm hitting 1.9MB/s right now, without a doubt the fastest single download since i started, and thats with a few (very slow) streams going up. Not much of an actual speed improvement, but it seams to stay at speed rather then bouncing up and down as it did before.
/Edit

Edit (Third)
Upload-speed "record" is currently 3.2MB/s, but it still bounce pretty much as it did b4. The average download speeds are "a lot" higher, so over all, speed improved quite a bit. If you haven't tweaked the cache size, and you have a good speed connection, do it, regardless of stability issues.

Working like a champ. Thanks for such a quick fix!

Glad it fixed your problem. Thanks for reporting back!

This didn't garner a response last time, so I'm trying again now.

After upgrading to 2.42, the setting to control browser refresh frequency has disappeared.

This was always session-specific anyway and would often mysteriously revert back to 5 seconds, but at least I could keep changing it. Now, the setting has been removed from Preferences and I'm stuck at 5 seconds, rather than the 1 second refresh rate that I would prefer.

Does anyone know of a way to fix this?
