RN102 power led keeps blinking after firmware update

Hi, 

Tried updating firmware to the latest version and now the NAS has gone into a Coma.

POWER LED is blinking since the firmware update started approx 2 hours ago.

All other LEDs are on and solid.

Cant login to web and cant see the NAS from raidar. Cant access the shares either.

 

Dont want to do a factory reset as I dont have a backup of the data.

Can someone please advise.

    What firmware were you running before?  Did you upgrade to 6.6.1 or something else?

      Sorry didnt pay attention before upgrading, assuming it is upgrading to the latest version. It had been a while since i last updated though.

      Had this same issues a couple of years ago and had to have the NAS chassis replaced as the system would not recover even after doing a factory reset.

        Upgraded to v6.6.0

        A couple of reboots has resolved the issue for now. Thanks ! I can now login to the admin page and access the shares.

        Will now setup backups to a usb hdd.
