WebAccess A system error occured. Reboot the LinkStation and try configuring it

[mslatersr]

When setting up WebAccesss.  If I use uPnP I can see the a new entry being made in the list in my router to forward the port however I get a message that say the user name I am using may already be in use. I confirmed that the user was set up by me by going to the buffalones.com and deleted the user name with the key I generated and then tried a new name with the same results. If I manual set up the same thing happens. It seems to me that possibly -- I can make the request to the server to set up my un/pw but the server cannot respond back to my buffalonas LS220DE.  I think this because I tried to ping buffalonas.com and the replies timed out. I used the IP address that I got from the ping I did in the cmd and did a ping using the buffalonas. Does anyone have any ideas for me to try something different?
