    Hi Leedanskin,

     

    Can you download the system logs and provide it to us? You can upload it to a file sharing site and PM me the download link.

        Hi Leedanskin,

         

        How long does it take before the system crashes? Can you download the logs before it happens?


        Regards,

  • I've had exactly the same problem since I upgraded to 6.9.4 last week.

    I got a tweet from NetgearHelps yesterday saying to boot into Tech Support mode, which I did and it's showing "Debug code: XXXXX" but I can't find any further info about that message.

    RAIDar detects it, which it didn't after a normal boot (NAS was hung).

    I can't connect (via browser) to the IP address shown by RAIDar, so I guess my next step is to ssh into the box to see what I can see.

      That is NOT an error code.  It's a PIN that Netgear can use to remotely access your system.  Somehow you need to get the code to the person who asked you to go into tech support mode.

      You can't use ssh in tech support mode, but you could use telnet.  You'd need to start RAID, mount the OS partition and data volume manually.  

       

      If Netgear wants to take a look, then the right next step is to let them.

        Whoops! Thanks for removing that info.

         

        Their tweet said "contact support" but my warranty's expired, so they expect me to pay US$80+ in order to have them look at a problem caused by their OS update? :smileysad:

  • I have exactly the same error message since upgrading to latest firmware last week. No idea how to do a roll back or what to attempt first. any help appreciated.

      Could do you please boot into tech mode again and PM me debug code?

      Let us remote access to check the problem.

      • I successfully went back to 6.9.3 so I no longer have the problem. However Leedanskin and Bradek3788 would probably be grateful for some help in getting their NAS running again.
