17 Topicshow to upgrade the R7100LG - Nighthawk 4G LTE Modem Router to new firmware
Hi, Does anyone know How I can upgrade the R7100LG - Nighthawk 4G LTE Modem Router when the upgrade to the new firmware failed using the browser? What I did: I opened the control panel of my router in a browser. On top of the site it stated there was a new firmware available so I clicked that button to start the upgrade. After 25 minutes there was no response, so I rebooted the router. Now I have a flashing / blinking power led with indicate I have a faulty firmware. I can ping my router but I am unable to open the control panel using a browser. actions taken: I downloaded both the new 1.0.0.30 and the previouw version 1.0.0.28 to install the firmware manually according this website: Reinstall the firmware on a router without the setup CD recovery tool . I can set the times it wil retry at a 20 times but it all failed stating: Unable to get response from the server. retry (20/20)... question: Does anyone know if here is any other way to upgrade the firmware other than the two methodes mentioned above? nice to know: the router was purchaged on jan. 9. 2017. so I am just out of the complementary support (90 days....)Solved3.8KViews0likes5CommentsRN104 inaccessible and displaying btrfs_biomerge_bio_hook+a4 message

Today wont power on (was shutdown fine via Frontview) - options please?
Dear all As well as having the flu I am crying at the NAS. I have an ReadyNAS Duo v1 from about 2012 ish I guess. It has 2 x 2TB drives at about 65 percent full. My Zigor UPS died yesterday. So i have binned that. I moved the ReadyNAS plug to another socket and it was fine. All worked well. This morning I had to remove the UPS so I shut the office down, and shut the NAS via front view. All well. Replugged everything and now it will not start. I have tried a different plug and have ordered a new 12v PSU from AMazon and I really hope it works as like you all my life is on there. So my questions are please? 1) has this ever happened to any of you and will the new PSU fix it 2) if it doesnt do you know what I can do other than buy the same one again put the drives in (but I am guessing it will sync and delete 3) any idea how I can resuce the drives and data please of it will not turn on? 4) say its all dead - whats the best option for replacing... I do not stream from it its just storage but I liked the redundancy of the drives. Do I just use cloud? 5) any help gratefully received. Thank you C2.4KViews0likes5CommentsDisk Test Failure

I have been using the EX2700 WiFi Range extender for roughly 6 months without any problems however in the last week it has stopped working. It still connects to my WiFi router (all the appropriate lights are on) but when I connect to it on my laptop or mobile phone, there is no internet connection. I have followed all the troubleshooting instructions on this website and nothing has improved. I have reset the extender, forgotten the wifi network on my laptop/phone and reconnected yet still the same result. I found out I am apparently not eligible for customer support after just 90 days which is absolutely ridiculous. I should be able to call someone without paying a ridiculous cost just to receive some help. Asking on here is pretty much a last ditch effort, nothing else has been able to help so far unfortunately, hopefully somebody here can help3.5KViews0likes1CommentDrive replacement for Readynas RN10400
Where in the netgear provided handbooks does it provide instructions for 2 of 4 failing drives. For example, does new replacement drive need to be formatted. Can 2 drives be replaced at same time. Will I lose data from remaining 2 drives during this process. Does server need to be in boot mode, etc. Ordinarily, disks can be of different sizes - is this true for replacement disks as well?2.4KViews0likes3CommentsVolume Scan Failed to Run Properly during boot
I have a ready nas business edition with iscsi enabled. It is running the latest firmware. If I reboot it normally without checking : Perform volume scan on next boot. This process can take several minutes to more than an hour depending on disk capacity and volume content. Check and fix quotas on next boot. This process can take several minutes to more than an hour depending on disk capacity and the number of files on your volume. the NAS boots fine, but if I try and check both or either of these two boxes, the NAS hangs during the boot process. I did get a notice awhile back that I needed to backup all data and check and repair volume. Please advise.2.6KViews0likes3Comments
