Are you serious?
I have nothing better to do than contact this forum and wait for responses.
of course I have tried multiple known good switches, known good cross over cables, etc...
(please see previous posts)
If you have an enterprise device that cannot accept backups, and data transfers, I cannot use it.
How could Anti-virus affect a backup/data transfer?
The TS runs on Unix firmware.
Can you please give me an example of an Antivirus product that is known to cause "problems" on a Buffalo TS. Give me something to work with. What settings could be affecting this device's connectivity?
Safe mode. What will that accomplish?
If the device accepts a data transfer using Windows Safemode? Then what?
I should back up my Exchange, Citrix, Fileserver in safemode?
