Problem Connecting LinkStation

[CosmosisX]

   

I have been having lots of problems with my linkstation(LS-WTGL) the last couple of days. I have been trying to troubleshot it but with little success. The front lights are no longer green but the top one is blue and their is a red light in the middle that I have never seen before. I have read many forms on resetting the linkstation by holding down the function button, which turned the LED back to green but had no other effect. I also cannot install new firmware on the device because nothing can detect it. I am rather computer literate but I always have difficulty troubleshooting network problems.

Can you check if your unit is "Made in China" or "Made in Japan" ? It should be written behind the unit just below Buffalo Inc.

 

Can Nas Navigator detect the NAS?

 

Are you able to ping it?

The unit was made in china NAS cannot detect it and I have been unable to ping it mostly because I'm not all to sure on how to do that. The problem is that when I turn The unit on The power led flashes blue. If I hold down The function button a red light goes on But doesn't flash. I have tried to reset The unit by holding down The function button for 6 seconds then waiting for it to start up then holding it again. But all that did is make The leds green again like they are supposed to be But I still cannot detect it on my computer.

It looks like you have lost the boot image possibly.  You will need to contact your regional support.
