HD Homerun Channel keeps timing out?

I am new to the whole Hd Homerun and Channels Dvr. So yesterday I was recording Suits on USA Network and when I was watching the recording I noticed a few things. Like the play back was stuck playing the samething over and over. I had to fast forward to skip that spot, but there was other issues. When I looked at the log I saw that the channel keeper timing out. What would cause this? Here is the log for the suits recording.

Any help would be great. Thank you in advance.

This means there’s a bad network connection between the HDHR and your NAS. Are they both connected to the same physical switch or router?

Yes there both plugged into the something. Is there a way to check the connection? If this keeps happening I might have to change the wifi router to a new device.

What kind of router is it?

You can double check the connections are secure. And maybe swap for better quality cables (make sure they say cat6e).

Its a synology rt2600

Do you have any storage connected to the USB ports? Do you have any other network gear maybe an old switch or router lying around?

I saw your other thread on this as well. It would be good to try and move the DVR and HDHR off the RT2600 and put them on something else in front of that, at least as a test.

I do have one usb flash drive on the router for reports, but nothing else. I have an old switch that I can test with, but its old (max 10/100). I am looking into somethings now. I really think that RT2600 router is causing problems.

A NetGear ProSafe 5-port GigE Etherswitch, unmanaged, is $35 on Amazon. The managed version is $45.

I’m a strong believer in separation of functionality when it comes to network infrastructure. Routers should route, switches should switch, and WiFi Access Points should WiFi.

Thats the route I am thinking about going. All separate items, a router, switch & wireless ap.

I also have the Synology RT2600ac router/wifi. Haven’t seen any problems like this. Used to have the MacMini that Channels/Plex runs on and the primary HDHomeRun wired direct into the RT2600. Had to add a switch for more ports. I saw no difference either way. Might swap out cables.

Are you running Intrusion Prevention package on this router? I liked the idea but saw far too many problems when it was active. Might also deactivate it for a while and test if you are running it.

I will try some new cables and I turned off Intrusion Prevention package awhile ago.
