Ok, so I changed the plug on the new wifi backup drive (NDAS). But even though it now has power, its still not working..........

"whats wrong with it", I hear you say!

Well it's not getting an IP address from the network, and it appears that my damn Modem router has faulty firmware or hardware stopping the UTP patch ports from working all of a sudden.......WHAT the dillio !!!!

So I am gonna have to find some cash from somewhere to do something about it, else my backup's gonna fail soon cos I am running low on space on the existing discs array.

Oh well.....nuff said for now, I will get back to work and see what I can do!
