I have the WD Worldbook (the one that connects to your router and works over the Local Area Network).
I have not used it for about 6 months and since using it last I have changed the router. No matter what I do it always shows as offline on my computer and I cannot access it.
I should add the the blue circle light in the front does not seem to come on when it is connected to the power
Am I able to access the external hard drive by connecting it directly to the computer with a usb cable? I have tried this but my computer didn’t recognize anything so I need to check if this is an option. If it can be does it make any difference if the device (i.e. extrnal hard drive) is connected to the power or not.
Any help would be appreciated.
