Solution to Bit torrent access problems

searching and searching again for a solution of the ReadyNAS Bittorrent problem that cannot permit to access the download manager page i noticed that many people have the same problem so I wanted to share the ukzappa solution in this summary post:


1) stop the Bit torrent service from Frontview
2) open the "run" console in windows "accessories"
3) write this: net use t:\\192.168.x.x\c admin /user:admin (insert your Readynas exact ip instead of the xx)
4) if it ask for password write the password and press "return"(don't worry if you don't see the word while you are writing)
5) now you see an additional local disk named "t:" in the list of pc disk
("t" like the letter after the command "net use", you can change it if you like another letter)
6) make visible the hidden folders in "control panel"--> "folders options"--> "folders and hidden files"-->"show folders and hidden files"
7) than go to disk "t:"---> ".bittorrent" folder and delete all the files you see....with this you will lost the downloading torrents (not just downloaded)
but this solve the problem
8) restart Bit torrent service from Frontview

done

tnx to ukzappa for the solution...i lost a lot of time to upgrade and downgrade firmware and installing and unistalling addons.

P.S.: sorry for my bad english
