QNAP TS453A Recovery Help Needed

Post by Luft08 »

My TS453A suddenly told me that it couldn't reach the DNS so I tried a number of things that didn't work. I finally decided to backup all of the data via the USB and reset the NAS.

All of my data is safe but during the reset it asked me if I wanted to install the hybirdDesk Station in order to use the HDMI connection. I said yes but it still could not reach the internet to download the needed software.

This tells me that the reset didn't fix the networking problem. So here I sit with a command prompt and no internet access from the NAS. Even if I manage to install the hybirdDesk Station by hand it won't fix my lack of internet access/LAN access. :cry:

I'm not a network expert so I am clueless as to how to proceed. My NAS has four RAID quality 8 terabyte drives with no ability to talk to my network. sigh...

Follow up:

I checked and all of my files are still there so the NAS didn't do a factory reset. I then shut the NAS off and removed all four drives then restarted. After the NAS came back it told me to add the drives so I added one drive and continued the setup. It eventually gave me the Congradtulations! message and told me that I can start using it and that the IP address was:

Yep, no IP address. I am beginning to suspect a hardware issue. I am not a happy camper.
