Describe the issue

Hello, My Nucleus+ (rev B) 2TB, SN: 54B2038C1522 suddenly stopped working. It doesn’t show up on my network anymore either. The ethernet ports on both the HPE 1930 Ethernet switch and the Nucleus+ are both blinking but it doesn’t register or work. I’ve restarted the Nucleus+, the 1930 and the FiOS router to no avail. I also spent 60+ minutes on the phone with HPE tech support to see if the problem was the switch. I’ve swapped Ethernet cables and ports, as well. This system has provided much joy at my house. Please help fix it

Describe your network setup

Do you have local music files stored on your Nucleus?

Can you access these?

Do they look normal music files?

Additionaly would be helpful if you will share the photo of what are you seeing on the screen.

Hi Mr.Fibble,
I do not have any files saved on my Nucleus. I can’t get it to register on my network and can’t see what’s on it (if I did have files).

Vadim,
Thanks for the instructions. All my keyboards are Bluetooth connected so have been hunting down a wired keyboard. Hoping to have one tomorrow to try these steps.

If you have the Bluetooth dongle for them, they might work. Mine does.

Hello @2000W,

Thank you for the update.

Please let us know when you will be able to access your Nucleus device.

Hi Vadim,

I connected the Nucleus+ to a screen via HDMI (tried ports A and B separately). Nothing shows on my screen, except the attached “No signal” message from the monitor. I appreciate your help thus far! Please advise on next steps.

Hello @2000W,

Based on the photo, it looks like the Nucleus device is not powered up. Do you see any indication that the device is powered on, such as a blinking power button or any other light on the device, aside from the Ethernet indicator?

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hi Vadim,

The device is powered up. The light on the power button is lit.

Best,
