Oh, yeah, there’s but one thing involved to power cycle as far as network, the Netgear 2200d and that’s been done since it needs to be done now and then to get Internet back due to where we live. (cell service is flaky, but it’s better than cable or DSL which don’t exist here)
But the router would have zero to do with Tablo picking up where left off or not if you think of it logically.
I do have to ask - how could a router impact this if all else works fine? I’m quite certain we can skip anything to do with the network honestly as it can’t possibly be involved in selectively choosing what Tablo elements will work and which will not. It passes packets, it routes packets. It won’t cause 1 specific thing in Tablo to not function but allow all other functions to exist and work fine. And since the speed is excellent, and all else functions beautifully, it ain’t network.
The connection is there and is fine and fast. (I’m a network admin and architect at work so am up on network troubleshooting. I support nearly 40 routers, about as many firewalls, smart Juniper switches that route and have firewall abilities, etc.)
Been through all the obvious stuff anyway just “because it’s simple to do” and as we’ve been discussing this for a month or more and all devices have been power cycled and the cache and data cleared, each thing more than once and the issue persists.
And since it’s on ALL devices I’ve used with Tablo, it’s not just a browser cache, otherwise it would function on the phones and if it was just a phone thing, it would function on the PC.
Two phones, PCs, it’s not the network (it’s also a reserved address although that has squat to do with this) and the Tablo is WIRED to the router with a new certified 5e 6’ cable.
There’s something about it where Tablo is not writing the last viewed position of any recordings. It’s any recorded show, so it’s not show specific, day, week or month specific. I use Chromecast it always always starts every show at the very beginning as soon as I start to “cast”. If I don’t cast it, if I just go go watch it on my PC, it also starts each show at 0 time, even if I’ve watched it part way through multiple times, it always goes to 0 time. So I’ve gotten to the point of trying to remember where I left off with each show.
I have not tried since the firmware update, however, down with a BAD throat and sinus infection so may not be into TV for a couple of days but would like to try Tablo with the update from 2 nights ago just to see how it works with thumbnails, etc. and if they did resolve some “stability issues”, who knows, maybe the update helped.
