factory reset
18 TopicsCannot connect to WAC730 after factory reset
Please help. I am unable to access the AP after a factory reset. All the lights are coming on as normal. The router sees it and assigns it an IP. However, when I try to access the management page on that IP I get no response. I tried on 2 different routers. I know the reset occurred because the broadcast SSID reverted to the default. When I try to connect to the default SSID i dont even get an IP address assigned. The reason I had to factory reset is I incorrectly setup a vlan and the AP got isolated from the network and became inaccessible.Solved11KViews0likes12CommentsPowerline Adaptor Corrupt and won't Reset
Hi Everyone, I inadvertantly entered the incorrect password for one of my XAV1301's when setting the encrption. The device accepted the password, but now I can't access it as it always says "password incorrect, try again", but there doesn't appear to be any way of entering a password, other that when networked to another powerline adaptor and it refuses to "factory reset" to reset the encription. The Netgear firmware upgrade tool can read the MAC address, but does not recognise it as a valid device. Is it dead, or is there some way to recover it? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.6.6KViews0likes15CommentsRN214 Won't Boot even after Factory Reset
Never had a problem till now. I had to move my ReadyNas to another location. Powered down, moved it, turned it back on and it's stuck on "Booting... 67%" After much internet searching, I tried diiferent options in the boot menu -- OS Reinstall, and even Factory Default (I do have everything backed up), but with both options and multiple attempts, it still stalls out while Booting, somewhere between 60-57%.The power button blinks blue, all 4 disk lights are lit up, and the ACT light is flashing steady. I left it trying to boot overnight, no progress. Was looking into the USB Recovery tool, but couldn't figure it out. Also I use a Mac and can't open exe files. I'm not sure the firmware. I haven't updated it in probably 6 months. I use this device primarily with PLEX. I would have thought a Factory Reset would do the trick. I'm just trying to get the thing back up and running. Any help is greatly appreciated!Solved5.7KViews0likes14CommentsRN102 won't do the factory reset
Wanting the factory reset (push the reset button with a paperclip, put on power, see all lights go on, select Disk 1 with backup button, press the reset again with the paperclip) it won't do the reset. The power button flashes for a moment, and then... nothing happens. And since the RN102 is invisible in my network on 2 computers from one day to another, I guess I have to do the reset..? Does this mean that all data is still available on disc 2 (since it is a 2 bay NAS)? But however, I want it to work again. The factory reset is not working. What can I do?5.5KViews0likes12CommentsRN104 Stuck In Boot Menu Mode/Normal after firmware upgrade 6.6.1
Last time I logged into my RN104, it offered me a FW upgrade to 6.8.0. I accepted. Something went horribly wrong and my NAS became unusable - completely. My data's fine due to having off-site backups. But, the RN104 is toasted - sort of. When powered on, it wants to (only) boot USB. So I prepared a USB recovery flash drive. It went through the process and powered off the NAS. I powered back on and nothing. It wants to only boot USB. Trying multiple flash drives didn't help. But, in one of those attempts, I neglected to copy the <firmware>.img file to the USB drive and the unit dropped into tech support mode (LCD says "DEBUG $PORT $IP Recovery"). I can use RAIDar to find the unit. It says: Model: None Name: readynasos Serial: NONE000200000 Status: Tech Support Mode Firmware: 6.2.4 IP Address: 198.162.29.190 (28:C6:8E:35:20:6A) Debug code: TELNET Mode I can login via telnet as root, with pw infr8ntdebug. From that point, is it possible for me to reset this whole thing to Factory Defaults or do an OS Reinstall? I have a disk drive I can use in it for this exercise (I'll upgrade to larger, real drives if it works). How would I go about that? Thanks!5.5KViews1like33CommentsGSM7328Sv2 - Factory reset
Wondering if someone can help, we have had this switch for a while and it has been sat in storage for some time. We no longer know the IP of the switch, what subnet it was on etc. After powering it on and letting it boot up, I connect a machine to it and cannot connect to the management interface. It just doesn't want to play ball! If I can get onto the switch and configure its IP, I will install this at one of our other sites, but at the moment I am having some real difficulty getting its IP. I have tried using the Smart Control Center Manager app and it is not detected. Unfortunately we do not have a serial cable to connect to it, cannot run Putty etc. I have tried using the reset button at the front but I have seen online this is for rebooting the switch? Is there anyway to just reset its IP at least so I can get onto the management interface? Any help or points in the right direction would be great! :)4.8KViews0likes1CommentReset satellite only?
I've done a factory reset via the GUI to try and improve speed. Where I was formerly getting 200+ mbs wireless download speeds I now can't break 100 (I get nearly 300 mbs download speed when Ethernet wired to my ISP modem). If I reset the satellite through the pin hole on the unit will the satellite only reset, or would the GUI reset have taken care of that?dgn2200v4 factory reset
Salve Stavo scaricando l'aggiornamento al firmware del mio router DGN2200v4 quando mi si è bloccato. Non riesco più ad accedere al router con il browser , continua a lampeggiare la luce adsl e non mi fa il reset alle impostazioni di fabbrica. Avete qualche suggerimento? Grazie3.2KViews0likes1Comment
