Hello,
my first and very bad post :(

i tried to install the fvdw firmware, by erasing the hard drive (manually on my computer) and then mounting it and i try it the clunc way on windows, using the right ip address, but the script never worked.
the window was on the waiting for uboot message all the time. then i try to restart the nas and try again, but nothing.
after that im not having any ip address from my nas so i cannot do anything. I manually added on my dhcp list but still nothing. The nas keep flashing as it is starting but i cant reach it.
Is there any way to solve this?. :corner
best regards

yes there is
use the fvdw-sl console to install the firmware and read the corresponding instruction en help windows carefully
Remarks:
do not use a wireless connection between the pc running the fvdw-sl console and your lan,
furthermore you lan should use ip's in range of 192.168.0.xxx or 192.168.1.xxx
Allow the tftp and clunc and nec programs used by the the fvdw-sl console to bypass your firewall.

Ok, i just try it again. Nothing happens.
I tried on both range of directions on my router through a cable network and in both doesn't work.

The device is not getting any ip address, as if the ethernet interface would not be activated , even if i put manually on the dhcp configuration. i dont even have a firewall or antivirus installed.

Any chance to do something else? like a serial cable connection or restoring the hard drive?.

:please

Hi kvzonrise,

As several members misunderstand how fvdw-sl console works when they use it first. Please, check if you followed this sequence :

- your NAS must be plugged on your LAN (not directly USB plugged in PC ) and switch off
- start fvdw-sl console and select the wanted menu
- Then it opens a network console (nc) to start clunc
- switch on your NAS
So tftp and telnet client console should be available

Well, i must say that i tryed that same steps and didn't work.

I have not bought a usb - ttl cable yet.

With the usb - ttl cable can i re-enable the network interface?

Any other thing to do?.

There is no reason that fvdw-sl console works with others members and not with you.(So it is an issue with your settings)

But you can try this trick viewtopic.php?f=28&t=1902

OK... after some weeks without time to do anything, i finally have the partition table recovered and the nas working... :evilwink Now i need to start from scratch. I'll try to run clunc on ubuntu, its not working on my windows, or in my work computer.

any advice?.

Ok guys, after some hours cracking my head, i was able to set up everything, clunc, tftp server and all on linux, and the clunc conecction worked at the first try.
Windows was my problem. After that i tried to install, and after some problems and errors, i finally get it working. now i just updated the firmware to 15.3 and i'm happy :D.
Thanks to all.
