Unfortunately no one can be told what fun_plug is - you have to see it for yourself.

Power light blinking continuously, unable to configure.

Hi Guys, great forum, if anyone can assist with my problem, will really help as I'm out of options right now.
Had the box for 18 months, was loaded with funplug and MLDonkey, no problems until about 2 weeks ago. Unit froze on startup, so removed disk and moved my data off using a different system, blanked the disk and put it back into the unit. Now when I boot the unit, disk is spinning, no HDD light ever appears and power light just keeps blinking. Ive tried to access via web interface and config utility, neither see it and I'm not presented with option to reformat disk. I have set my laptop to have an IP in the 192.168.0.x range and also tried to access this while HDD is removed, while a different HDD is in the box, no joy. Its like the box is in perpetual start up.
Ive reset the box a few times, still the same. Box also fails to respond to power off and I have to pull the cord.

Cheers, nic

So power led is blinking in every situation you mentioned in your post? If so then your device is bricked.

Thanks sala, I guessed it was beyond my ability to repair! I'm not a dab hand with a solder gun so I guess I'm going to have to find a new unit. ouch, gutted (and stoney broke)!
