I just fired up my MC200 after it being in storage for a while and it doesn't show up on the network anywhere. Any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong?

Thank you all in advance!

Have you tried the Sooloos Config app? PC only.

As Ian says.

Was it set to be Core, by the way? You can't have more than one core on your system.

At current, it's the only device on the system, so should be the only core.

When on, the little white LED on the front is pulsing gently. Is this normal, or should it be solid on?

Thanks!

Solid, pulsing was during startup if I remember correctly?

Correct. Pulsing front LED is during startup. Once the MC200 is up and running, the LED should be solid on.

That's correct, pulses as it boots up (takes only a few seconds) and then solid when running.

.......beat me to it! Dave

Should say it reaches the LED 'solid on' state irrespective of whether you are connected to the network. Can you hear the disk spinning?

I can hear the HD spinning but still pulsing white light. I'll ask the Meridian folks at the CES show tomorrow...

Thank you again for all the help here.
