My pc suddenly lost contact to my LinkStation Quad during playback of music from the NAS. The NAS doesn't show up in NAS Navigator2, and the shared and mapped drives are inaccessable as well as it has disappeared in Windows 7's Network and sharing center. Have tried from 3 pc's, a Samsung Smart TV and my Samsung Galaxy S2 - all of those used to access the NAS.
When I turn on the LinkStation Quad, the power LED blinks constantly (not 5,6 or 7 blinks, but constantly). The harddisk LED's are green. I have tried to leave the LinkStation on for a longer time, and after being turned on for a whole day and a whole night, the harddisk LED's turn red sometimes but not everytime. The power LED continues to blink constantly. The fan on the back works, and I have not changed the 4x 500GB harddisks that came with the device.
A peculiar thing is that I can actually see that the LinkStation Quad is connected to and have been assigned an IP-adress, when I check my routers admin-page. But I can't access the LinkStation Quad in a browser using this IP-address.
Any suggestions? This is the second NAS I've had from Buffalo. The other 1-disk LinkStation ended up with board-failure - I'm afraid I have had my last product from Buffalo.
Hope I don't have another bricked Buffalo NAS.
