Even from a Mac mini hooked through USB to the fonera is not very practical (less than 20Kb/s). I have to wait 7minutes for a downloaded pdf. Imagine a movie! The fonera is only downloading one torrent, so I doubt it is a device performance issue. But you guys keep saying we could stream music/video to our computers.... how? Am I doing s'thing wrong?

Changing password won't fix Finder saying "Connection failed. There was an error connecting to the server" - I am very sorry to say this product is making me fail frustrated and definetly does not look like ready to market... :-( Now, after rebooting fonera and macs, cannot see the shares anymore, so one step back.

I do see the HD from TimeMachine and journaling is disabled, but that file is never created... any hints? thx @Inouk

Just go to the interface and set your current password AGAIN (or set a new one) and it should work. thanks! iurgi Riwid,
