PS3 fails to see DLNA without ReadyNAS reboot

Hi Skywalker,
As per my original post, unfortunately not. Searching for media servers from the PS3 doesn't work.
If, as you say, the ReadNAS accepts client search requests, then it does seem likely that these are not being received or processed and hence this would explain the original problem.
FYI, the issue first occurred when I upgraded the NAS firmware a couple of months ago, that is, without changing a thing on the PS3. Before that, everything worked fine. Am I right to assume that ReadyDLNA could have been installed for the first time as part of this upgrade? If that's the case then either the previous DLNA server software was correctly processing client search requests and ReadyDLNA has an issue or the firmware upgrade introduced a separate problem.
Will the debug version of ReadyDLNA help? If so, where are the logs kept?
Thanks
Mike
