RN 204 won't shutdown and power button inoperable
I am having an issue where my RN204-100NES will not shut down properly through the admin web console, and the power button does nothing at all. When the shutdown is issues, it stays with a do_exit_8...
This unit was replaced by RMA and the replacement is working well.
I am on 6.5.1.
Which services and apps are you running?
Do you use WOL?
Do you use the scheduled power off/on timer?
Have you tried the volume read-only boot menu option?
I can't get connected to it to get the full list of what is enabled, but I think it is only http, https, and file share. I only use it as a backup location and the web admin console. I tried to turn everything else off when I initially set it up.
No on WOL and no on the scheduling. Just tried the volume read-only option, and I am stuck at the al_eth_set_wol+54 which seems to be when the nics aren't responding. 3 power cycles and still at the same point.
