Try connecting directly to it with a USB cable from the computer that has Drobo Dashboard on it. That should find it for sure and let you look at ip settings, etc. I've had to do it a couple of times.

It's on a really old, temp switch just for the build process.

We got it hooked up via USB and that worked fine. It is all configured now
