Storage Sharing bug and iPhone4
Region : Malaysia
Model : TD-W8968
Hardware Version : V1
Firmware Version :
ISP :
Hi all,
Just want to know if anyone have same experience as me with TD-W8980:
1. USB Storage Sharing: Once you setup the USB storage sharing with additional user accounts, try to access using this path: \\\volume (windows) or smb:///volume (Mac) and logon with any user accounts (not the admin) & password you created for them (even if those accounts don't have any permissions to any shared directories or even if you don't share anything to any users), then those user accounts will have full write permission to the root directory of the USB device attached. If yes, I think this is very serious bug.
2. iPhone4 connectivity: if you set the 2.4GHz with 11bgn mixed mode, then the iPhone4 connectivity will timeout very often, can be tested by pinging the iPhone's IP address from any other computers/devices connected to the same ADSL router. No issue with this 2.4 GHz 11bgn on other devices/computers. Found workaround for this iPhone4 connectivity by setting 2.4 GHz with 11bg mixed mode.
In both cases above, I configured the ADSL router as DHCP server and I use non-192.168.1.x subnet. I also enabled 5GHz with 11an mixed mode.
Cheers,
