It is a real pain to turn on/off daily. I read it disconnects after 5 min. Does that completely shut off? Does anyone leave it on 24/7?

I leave mine on 24/7, if it disconnects then I don't know but when the TV is on, it is working so no problems with that.

I have 3 of them and leave them all on 24/7 with no ill effects so far. They work flawlessly.

No on off switch, but goes to sleep 15 minutes after its used. Mine is connected to a Synology server via USB 3.0. It backs up every night at 1 am, so have not see it actually "on" in quite a while. Back ups run just fine and the log shows they are all there daily with no errors. Now the reason it is asleep is due to a setting in the Synology software. I could have it on all the time, but why? If I manually access the drive thru the Synology server it comes right up with no issue, AND is fast! Thats the best part. I would buy another if I needed one, no problem.

You're lucky you can unplug/replug and get it to work every time. Plenty of times it simply disconnects me altogether and I have to restart my computer, several times per day.

No, that is not normal. Send it back; once I hit the enter/ power botton, I can toggle to power off and it shuts off . Hope that information helps.

Mine turns itself off, which for me is very desirable. I can never remember to turn it off. It needs to be turned back on manually.

just purchased this and have not set any daily modes for the week, but activated the vacation security mode to see how the random on and off light feature worked. I've also set the day and correct time in this unit,, so far for the last 2 nites, the unit has turned on the lamp at around 6PM but I've manually turned off the unit late at nite before I go to bed because it stays on. during the day, it stays off. I can only surmise that I have to set on and off times for each day & that the random timer works off of that,, otherwise it does not appear to do the random on and off.

That never happened to me after using it daily for 7 months. I would say it is not normal if it keeps shutting off by itself,

It shuts off after 10 or 12 hours........way too long for me. I usually turn it on 1 hour before I go to bed, turning it off when I get into bed. Bed stays nice and toasty until I fall asleep. (Course I also have 3 little dogs under the covers with me. :)

It does not shut off automatically. You can leave it on all day. I have mine plugged into an outlet strip that also has a light plugged into it. If the light is on, I know the iron is on. That way I can't accidentally leave it on overnight.

Hold down on the ON/OFF button a few seconds, do the same thing to turn it off.... and unplug it, I hope this helps you.

Mine cuts off (lights still blinking but no connectivity) every week or so. A bit annoying but it usually is revived by unplugging the power for a moment and re-plugging it in again). If you know of another 8 port router, let me know... I'd like an alternative myself.

Mine turns off after approx 20 mins of no input, no matter whether running on battery or plugged in, and no matter whether on Bluetooth or wired input. It must then be turned back on with the power switch. There is no way to defeat this, and I verified with JBL/Harmon Customer Support that this "Standby mode" is normal behavior. This is NOT mentioned in the skimpy user manual provided, and is completely UNsatisfactory for my desired use. It's getting returned, unfortunately.

There is no on/off button. When plugged in, it's on. Obviously when unplugged, it's off. I hope that helps!

As far as I've experience so far, it never turns off unless you turn it off. I left it on overnight one time.

I have had mine for 7 months and have never had to touch it. Do you turn your wifi off every day? If you do I could see having to reset it also, if not then it must be defective.

Mine has been fine. Had it a year and a half almost always plugged in and still lasts several hours whenever I unplug it. Ran it about 5 hours unplugged the other day and it was still going strong before I had to turn it off for the evening.

Hi Ya. I've have a couple of issues with the on/off switch. But, I think it's because of the water proof casing and that I'm a little impatient sometimes. It'll start up as long as I press and hold the on/off button til the little green light lites up. Then it works great!!
