Model : TL-WR1043ND

Hardware Version : V1

Firmware Version : 3.13.12 Build 120405 Rel.33996n

ISP : ANTEL


I have a WR1043ND v1 00000000 router. The router is configured with dhcp server, wireless network (no wds), WAN with dynamic ip, and my bandwith is 2Mbps/512Kbps. While I used the router with this configuration I had no problems with it.

A few weeks ago I bought a 750 Mb (FAT32) external USB hard drive, connected it to the router and configured it for storage sharing (no ftp, no media server). After a few hours using it the router hanged up (while streaming from the disk or copying files to it) and since then I have been restarting it quite often (always while using the disk).

I have checked the disk and it is ok. I have tried another usb external drive (500Gb) and the router hanged up also.

Because of this I upgraded to the latest firmware (3.13.12 Build 120405 Rel.33996n) but I am still having the same problem. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

Many thanks,

Federico

How many files you are copying at the same time? If you copy too many files at the same time, it could be a very heavy work for a router.
