Can someone help me fix my linkstation. NASNavigator cant see the linkstation, ive tried booting into EM mode, tried TFTP booting but there isnt a file for this model. Any suggestions on how to get the linkstation working again?

  I am working on trying to get a copy of the Boot Image for this model.  As of right now there is nothing else you can try.  Thank you for letting us know.

i had the same problem - but i used the boot image from the

firmware download package from the buffalo website.

 

after the tftp upload the blue lights went on, BUT then i can not

do any firmware upload with the LS Updater!!

 

do you have any recovery pack for the LS-WXL R1 ???

your link referring to TFTP boot procedure STILL does not provide a boot image - the FTP link location in that article to locate your models boot image doesnt even work

 

I need to recover my drive ASAP!  I work in a banking environment and ALL work has stopped because of this :/

 

6 blinking red lights.

Never heard of a backup? I know it doesnt solve your issue but you should always keep one!

PM me for TFTP / Boot Images / Recovery files  LSRecovery.exe file.
Having network issues? Drop me an email: info@interwebnetworks.com and we will get it fixed!

Identical problem here.

 

I called Bullalo tech support and they said they'd upload an appropriate file for the LinkStation Duo LS-WXL/R1 later today and email me when it's available.

 

Will let you know how I go.

No problems, my experience with Buffalo technical support has been very good.

 

I'm happy to report that the file is now available for download from the ftp site. I successfully used it to perform a TFTP boot and fix my linkstation. Hooray!

Please share any assistance on how to remedy the six flashes error.  NAS turns on, power light flashes then I hear an audible click, power light goes off and six flashes. access the drive.  I can no longer access/find the Linkstation (ls-wtgl/r-1 v3) anywhere on network in normal or EM.
