[Help] Web interface completely down
Posted: 25 Oct 2026, 22:12
5 days ago Windows explorer was really slow when I clicked on My Computer. I decided it was because the NAS connection must be hanging so I deleted the share and restarted the PC. Drive 1 and 2's lights were flashing a lot and it wouldn't react to a quick press of the power button ( shut down ) so I ended up doing a hard power cycle. I tried to remap the NAS ( F424-Max) but it failed. ( Network name cannot be found ) Using net view NAS_IP I'd get System error 53. Pinging worked, Test-NetConnection NAS_IP -Port 445 sometimes says False and sometimes is True. So, currently I can find the device on the network and file sharing is enabled. Trying to open the web interface fails ( 504 error ) but once, 2 days ago, I was able to get the login screen to come up but it wouldn't accept my login and eventually went back to the 504 error. With the lights flashing I decided maybe there was an issue with a drive and it's being rebuilt ( RAID5 ) so I left it for another 2 days. Nothing has changed other than basically all 6 lights are flashing/active now. Since I can't login to the NAS interface I can't see if it's complaining about a drive, etc. What should I do now? I'm trying to decide if I let it keep going for awhile, hard power down and put the drives in my desktop to check the drives, or reinstall TOS and hope for the best.
