New to the group, mainly a lurker, try to find my answers on my own, and usually do, but this time I'm stumped.
Had to shut everything down to do a modem reset instructed by ISP provider to get higher download speeds this past Monday.
I own an EX485 that was probably running great for the past year or two, since I upgraded to v. 3.0. Mainly a file server with movies, no daily backups, I backup my files manually.
After the modem rebooted, turned on router, switch, Main desktop, etc, etc. I finally get to the whs, no joy. No hdd lights, on light blue, network light blue, health light red/white solid, long story short, OS drive gave up the magic smoke.
Got new drive installed and proceeded with recovery, messed up the first time and recovered using 2.0 disks, I realized this as it was booting into the console for the first time, so as soon as I could get to the shut down button, I did, and immediately did the recovery using the 3.0 disks, I don't think or hope this has any bearing on my situation.
Everything is fine except I can not get my Domain name back, it is treating me like it's the first time and it wants me to create a new domain name. Of course I put in my domain name and it tells me that its been taken or in use.
I don't have the option that is mentioned in the upgrade guide to unconfigure (release domain).
All the searches so far say to do the release domain, but I don't get that option.
It also will not configure the router, it fails this step also.
The ports should be open and whatever steps it did last time with the UPNP should still be in place, like I said the os drive died and I haven't done anything new to the router.
What am I missing, I don't remember if I had this problem when I upgraded to 3.0 for the fist time, if I did, I don't remember what fixed it and I obviously didn't bookmark it, cause I can't find it. And it was working fine.
Please help!!!
