I have LS-Q6.0TL/R5 buffalo

I powered it up and plug the usb cable in. no luck , windows 7 pro doesn't see that something plugged in.
I plugged it in via network cable navigation software unable to find it. I am assuming , previous user did not set the IP address to DHCP. meaning the device is on different IP set then my network.

so, question is, is there anyway to force the unit to reset everything? including IP address and contents.

thanks in advance.

It is not a USB device so will never been seen by a USB connection on a PC.

Connect to the LAN and run the NAS Navigator software with your security software on the PC disabled. See if it can find it then, also check the LEDs on the device.
PM me for TFTP / Boot Images / Recovery files  LSRecovery.exe file.
Having network issues? Drop me an email: info@interwebsireland.com and we will get it fixed!

Have i helped you? Buy me a coffee as a thanks!
