Hello. I have a Buffalo LinkStation LS-V3.0TL 3TB NAS attached to my network. After a few years of functioning normally, recently I cannot access my NAS share or see the NAS on my local network. I rebooted the NAS, and the status light is solid blue. When I log into my router I can see it is a connected device, listed as "LS-VL-EMA75" with the same IP address it has always had. But, previously this device was named "LS-VLA75" on the network. When I try to browse to the IP address of the NAS, I am told the site can't be reached (refused to connect) instead of being shown the LinkStation admin login page. If anyone has any suggestions to why my NAS is no longer visible please let me know. I cannot access it from any of my network devices (Windows 10 laptop, iPad, Android phone). Thanks in advance for your help!

It's in Emergency Mode, you need to reinstall the FW.
PM me for TFTP / Boot Images / Recovery files  LSRecovery.exe file.

How can I reinstall the firmware? Don't I have to be able to connect to it via the network to do this? (I don't believe there's any way to connect this model directly to my PC via USB cable).
