Hello All

 

This is my first post here as my LS-XL has been working just fine (until now). I noticed that there was a message on the linkstations webpage that there was an updated firmware available. However when I go to the maintenance there is no "Firmware Upgrade" . So I thought I would try the stand alone update utility, now while this has appeared to have upgraded the firmware, it still tells me there is an upgrade available and now way to apply it.

 

Its quite strange.

 

Any help or information will be  great help.

 

Thanks

Are you on FW 1.61?  If so, 

Notice for Linkstation owners, LS-V and LS-X series. If you have Firmware 1.61-to update to 1.62, this requires a manual download of the 1.62 firmware from the Buffalo Technology download site: http://www.buffalotech.com/support-and-downloads/downloads" target="_blank">http://www.buffalotech.com/support-and-downloads/downloads

Select your product, save the file, run the .exe file, then select your linkstation to be upgraded to 1.62. Do not turn off the linkstation during the upgrade. Always use a wired connection when upgrading firmware (not wireless) and always back up your data prior to installing firmware on any storage product.
