Reinstalling Bubba

Post by Moose »

Hello,

I've a (for me) serious problem with bubba. I can't reinstall the system on it. Of course I tried like the manual explains, downloading the image, put the content on a flash drive (I tried one flash drive, one CF card via a card reader and one external HDD, all formated with FAT32), connected the USB and after that holding the on/off button and then putting the power plug. The light flashes with, I assume 4Hz but no reaction from Bubba. He just flashes like that and that for hours.

Ok, why do I want to do that? Suddenly Bubba desided not to route any more. It worked like a charm before but then it suddenly stopped over night. Restart doesn't help, nothing, like changing the network profiles or whatever helped.
Now I'm in a state I can't do anything, ok, the system is still running if I reboot bubba normally, but as I said: that doesn't help.

After the troubles I already had with that product I'm getting a bit on the edge. Internet connection is just running because I found a router in the cellar that provides us with 10MBit on the WAN port and it's slow like hell.

So plz help.

Thx a lot in advance.
Magnus

Hi Moose,
Sorry for the delay. I have sent you a mail with RMA instructions. It seems your Bubba has some kind of hw problems.

Has this problem been resolved ? Was it a hardware issue in the end ?

Forums are no good unless the problem resoltion is detailed for each problem.

We received the Bubba yesterday and sent the unit back today. We replaced the main board. Reason for swapping boards was trouble reprogramming. Regarding the other problem its hard to say. We didn't find anything that could have triggered it.
