Open Issues:
 

General:
 
  1. Time Zone, changes to Other. This has been seen occasionally after an upgrade from 2.5.31 or 2.6.12, but is not reproducible enough to pin point the cause.
    • Work-around: Correct the Time Zone if you notice this.
  2. Session time-out while upgrading with a local file. If the session time-out is set to low, say 60 seconds, after uploading the code to the unit it takes you to the login page.
    • Work-around: Go to the System Settings and increase the session time out value to 300+ for 5 minutes+
  3. Manually configuring the USR8200 for Bridge mode can cause the unit to crash.
    • Work-around: Use the wizards provided to configure the USR8200 for Bridge mode.
  4. Some 1394b and USB 2.0 controllers that support master and slave drives, may not be detected. This is due to a protocol violation with the controllers and has been reported to the appropriate manufactures.
    • Work-around: Contact Manufacture for a firmware update or fix. Can also try 3.10.12.2 firmware if you have a 1394b controller not being detected.
  5. Linux PPTP client cannot connect to the USR8200's PPTP server.
    • Work-around: None
 

Notes:
 

Web-based Management:
 
File browsing with web browsers other than Internet Explorer. For security reasons Mozilla based browsers no longer support links such as \\servername or //servername. Therefore, links in the File Server Disk Information page and File Server Disks on the Network List View page will not display the contents of the hard drive when using these browsers. A work around is to open a file manager to go to the link directly (based on the operating system the \\ or // will be used in front of servername).
