MyCloud 3TB solid orange led and after few minutes off, but network is working

I have a problem - after blackout My Cloud does not work - if I start a power, the solid orange LED (not blinking) is on and after few minutes LED goes OFF… on the backside the network connection is working (up led is green blinking, down led is orange)… if I connect another drive to USB (WD Passport), the LED on passport is lighting, but the WD MyCloud LED does not… Where is a problem?

Thank you, sincerely
Kamil

Have you looked in the User Manuals for your My Cloud? Do you have Version 4.x or 2.x? I found nothing in either one for an orange LED. Could it be Red?

The color is ORANGE or YELLOW, not red…

Are you sure you have a single-bay, white case MyCloud? Orange is not a recognised LED state; see the user manual.

Can you access the Dashboard?
Had you fixed the ip address at your router?
Can you find the IP address using your router UI, and access the Dashboard using the IP address?
Have you tried rebooting your router, and the mycloud?

Was there a resolution to this? I have the same problem.
