Can't connect to Model 2000's

jhrBanker · 08-17-2009, 09:17 AM

I have two (2) Snap 2000’s that I haven’t used in a couple of years, and now I can’t get them to come online. The SN#’s are 21418 & 35544. The 21418 has two 8gb HD, and the 35544 has two 18gb HD. I found old screen-prints from Assist that indicates the 21418 is HW ver 1.1.0, and the 3554 is HW ver 2.0.0. I know the 35544 was upgraded to SW ver 4.0.860, and I’m fairly certain the 21418 was as well. I fired both units up, and they seemed fine, based on the LED pattern. Cooling fans are both working. However, SnapAssist doesn’t see them, and I can’t connect via http://Snap#####/config. I tried connecting for several hours with no success. I connected both units directly to my PC, via my Router, and via a Switch. No success. I opened both units, cleaned them and switched the HD’s around in each unit (not between units). Still no success.

One thing I’ve noticed with Assist. I have two other Snaps, a Model 4000 and a Model 4100. Both show up in Assist, but the as gray images with a ? in them. According to Assist Help, the gray color indicates “Servers that appear in gray are running an older version of the SnapServer software, or a version that is not compatible with Assist.” Both of these units are also running SW ver 4.0.860.

Any help connecting to the Model 2000’s will be appreciated.

There were some report issues with the older snaps. Try use Assist with a Win98 OS.
