WD Live Hub - Issue accessing network share

The other WD Live Hub in the bedroom can be pinged when on or off

If you can ping it… then it’s not " off" it’s in " Standby" state.  (which switches off Audio/Video Ouput … but the device’s hdd and network is still On)

Press the Power button on the Remote Control “once” for 1 second, then it’s in Standby

Press and “Hold” the Power button on the Remote Control for 5 seconds or more … for a Complete Power Off

Are you using the Geniune WD Remote on both ?  (or 3rd party, like Harmony remotes ie. a Harmony remote may be powering down the Live Hub completely at a single press, while the WD remote won’t)

3 “Power States”

ON             =  Front LED ON,  Picture and Sound ON, Network and HDD access is ON

STANDBY =  Front LED OFF,  Picture and Sound OFF, Network and HDD access is ON

OFF           =  Front LED OFF,  Picture and Sound OFF, Network and HDD access is OFF
