pure performace and connecting losses after update to V 6.4.0 on RN 2120
After automatic update to V 6.4.0 our RN 2120 v2 performace is really pure. SMB-Connections to Windows 7 Clints are not stable and User/Group rights a ignored. We need a fast hotfix for those probl...
Correction of my first post:
"We need a fast hotfix for those problems because we can't use our ReadyNas as fileserver at the moment?"
list of my attempts without any improvements:
- try turning off disk spin down -> still SMB-connection losses
- try with SMB+ app to downgrade SMB-version of SMB to 2.0 an 2.1 -> still SMB-connection losses
- delete BOND0 and now using only one network device that is connected to switch with static IP adress > still SMB-connection losses
- user/group rights -> You have to select all single user in share-setting to give them read/write rights (grouprights are ignored!) and have fun, if you have more then 10 colleagues!
After contact with netgear support, the suggestion was: reinstall OS with boot-option -> I'll try to night and if I experience any improvements, I let you know!
best regards

Does an OS re-install wipe out the data? I'm having soooo many problems sinc 6.4 than I'm contemplating starting over (and putting Netgear on my blacklist).
netgear support say: "NO data loss on OS-reinstall -> I'll have to try it at night and all difficulties I may will experience, you'll read tomorror!
I have 2 backups (USB an another NAS) -> data loss is not a real problem for me.
best regards

Great, thanks for the input. I managed to cancel the disk balance task that was locking up our unit and now it's working fine apparently.
I also have data backups, data loss is not a real issue, but the time that it would take to re-install and restore all the data is.
How did you managed to cancel the disk balance task that was locking up your unit?
