      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.

        There is no USB connectors to plug into.

          On your pc or the Drobo? I have a B800i, and it has a USB 2.0 plug on the back. Did it change that some point after they started making this babies?

                Shot. In the dark. Blue switch can't tell you the IP. Registered in the port?

                  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 🙂
