My WD TV live has been acting weird(I will explain the problems in details later) for some time now, initially i thought its because of the new firmware.
But even after a factory reset, the problems remain!
The problems
- It randomly stops detecting the External Drive I have attached to it.
- It hangs and then the only solution is to cut the power and restart the device. This can happen two-three times in a typical 2 hour run :annoyed::annoyed:
- It suddenly comes up with a message "An external wireless adapter detected. The WD TV will use this adapter for wireless connection. If you do not wish to use this adapter please remove it from the WD TV." To be clear, the only thing hooked up to the player is a WD My Passport 1TB External HDD. I do have my home Wi Fi network details fed into the WD TV, but I think this is an erroneous message and should not come up.
The factory reset has reduced the Hard Drive detection problem, but the hanging and the error message is still there.
My unit is out of warranty and when I called up the customer care, the only help they could provide was to ask me to do a "Reset", which, I had already done!
Is anyone aware of any solution to these kind of problems? If not, then what is the next best step that I can take?
