Buffalo Forums

Assisting a new client with a Buffalo LS420D, which we seem to be unable to get connected to any network.  They've recently moved and parted ways with their previous IT person, so no info on settings is available.

When the unit is started, the power LED and Funtions LEDs flash white for 10 seconds.  Then, the Function LED starts flashing red and does nothing else.  The red flashing light does so for seven (7) flashes at a time in a cycle.  I have tried searching for documentation to help explain this and have tried going through the Reset process I have seen described, but still cannot access the device.

It's currently doing that same Function LED flashing red 7 times over and over and over....the NAS Navigator software never finds it on any of the three, different networks we've tried it on.

HELP!

Did you ever get a resolution to this? I have the same problem.

i bought a new nas have tried on two networks, two sets of differnt drives. flashes red 7 times cannot be seen on any network. any ideas ? The people i bought it from says that its not a unit fault and format the hard disks done that to all sets makes not differnce. 7 leds seem to be nic or ram problem on other treads. did your issue get resolved as i cant seem to fix this issue
