Troubleshooting Cannot Setup
The following section lists typical occurrences and causes when you cannot setup the LinkStation by using LinkNavigator or cannot use LinkStation even after finishing setup,
Cause 1. An Ethernet cable is not connected.
Reconnect the AC Adapter and the Ethernet cable, and turn on the LinkStation again.
Cause 2. The firewall is enabled, or software running in the background is installed.

Cause 3. Both wireless and Ethernet Adapter are enabled.
Disable any adapters other than the Ethernet Adapter to connect to the LinkStation.
Cause 4. The defective Ethernet cable or the connection is not stable.
