I'm just off on holiday for the next 4 days so I'll set this up on my return. If there is some more detailed instruction as to how to set up port forwarding to you I would be grateful.

As of this morning my Nas is now booting up normally and back on my home network.

The L3 Tech support says that when he Telnetted into the NAS, he could see that disk 1 had failed, so asked me to remove it and reboot it back into telnet mode. After I did that he said nothing else was wrong so I could boot it up normally.

I'm glad it's back and (with a new drive soon to be on order) I can get it back to being our NAS RAID back up array but what I still don't get is:

why didn't I get an email notification of the drive failure?
why didn't the NAS join the network in this state?
is it just coincidence that after 4.1.9 the drive failed?

I asked these questions of the L3 support and he couldn't answer them.

So it's a mixture of "yay!" and *concern* this morning. I've got less faith in the stability of the product, now.
