dLAN 500 WIFI Kit won't stream video from my WD My Cloud network d

[Charliechuchu]

I’ve just purchase dLAN DLAN 500 WIFI kit to replace my old Devolo dLAN 85 plug.


The dLAN 500 kits (plugs) work well for surfing / streaming from the internet etc but will not work with my WD My Cloud network drive they simply will not stream the video media files using WIFI on my portable devices i.e iPad they just buffer, even my old dLAN 85 plug streamed the media content without any issues, so it can’t be a speed issue, actually the new plugs show better speed performance than the old dLAN 85 plug.

The dLAN 500 does stream from my WD My Cloud network drive when using the Ethernet port without any issues to my Smart TV but just buffers when trying from WIFI to any device.

Any ideas, surely it’s a setting issue somewhere, as the speed is OK, perhaps a compatibility issue.

I wouldn't have bought the new kit but I had the need for more than one plug.

I’d appreciate any advice.
