Streaming timeout on 104?
Hello community, Since recently - I suspect since firmware update 6.2.5 - my 104 disconnects streaming sessions after 30 minutes. I have turned off harddisk spin down to test but it still disconn...

After further investigation I'm pretty sure now that those periodic cleanup scripts kill the streaming. I'm not exactly sure where php5 comes from -- is this a package originally bundled by Netgear or did I do something silly and installed it? I personally don't need it; unless another app I installed requires it. But since my apps are gone, I could remove php as well.
I have meanwhile changed the cron tab entry to run once a day when I sleep.
So thx once again Jenn, your guess about load was correct at the end :) Well, I learned my lesson. A Netgear 104 NAS is a NAS, not a full-blown Linux box. Can live with that...

Hello hajo_s,
PHP is needed if there is an app that requires it.
Please feel free to continue posting in case it occurs again.
Thank you for your contribution to the community!

Thx Jenn,
It appears it was pulled in by an app I played around with then. I experimented with Wordpress at one point which is listed as a dependency. I removed Wordpress (with all other apps) so it seems it remained as an artifact. I'll probably dump it manually (via apt) then since I read you as the Readynas web front end not requiring it.
Thx again for the help!
