I've had some major problems with the QNAP TS-101 and the built-in SlimServer. I've had the device for many months and it's only recently that I've been experiencing these problems.
No 1 - SlimServer The SlimServer web interface no longer responds. Web browsers state that the web page is not found. This is at http://192.168.0.4:9000/ and has always worked in the past. Ive re-booted the TS-101 many times with no result. Note that I can access the TS-101 admin pages on http://192.168.0.4:6000/ so the TS-101 kinda works. My SqueezeBox states that it cannot find the SlimServer either. Ive re-booted the SqueezeBox many times with no result. Ive got the SqueezeBox logged into SqueezeNetwork for now. No 2 TS-101 Although I can access the TS-1-1 admin pages at http://192.168.0.4:6000/ using the default login and password there is a small problem in that the QNAP Install Wizard does not now allow me to re-map the drive it asks me for the login details (for some reason it fills in by name in the User Name field) and I enter the Administrator/admin default but an error message comes up that the server is not found on the network. But if I use the QNAP Install Wizard to go into the Configure options I can enter the Administrator/admin details and this does work (the other interesting thing is that it does re-fill in the Administrator name with Administrator rather than my name). Note that I can use windows to get to the public folders which where (many months ago) mapped to the X: drive I can use Windows Explorer to go straight to the X: drive. Its very slow though and mostly comes back with a time-out error. I can also navigate to the TS-101 using Windows Explorer by using My Network Places but it is so very slow that it takes like several minutes to respond and now mostly comes back with a time-out error. No 3 Firmware update I noticed that the firmware on the TS-101 is v1.1.0 and so I tried to update to v1.2.1 using the update at http://www.progressiveav.com/ts101_update/ and using the TS-101 admin update page but when I hit the update button the TS-101 says that the update failed. No 4 Miscellaneous Quite often now, the HDD light on the TS-101 is continuously lit-up (no flashing) for several minutes and in that state the TS-101 web admin pages are very, very slow to respond. No 5 HELP! I would like to re-install the TS-101 from scratch with a format, etc but I have no way of installing the SlimServer software. Im not sure how far Paul has got in his discussion with QNAP for users to have this SlimServer install facility. So, what can I do? Thanks for reading this far anyway!
