4. Managing the Media Drive
Using the Power Button
The power button performs three functions, depending on how long you hold in the
button.
Note: Resetting the Media Drive or forcing a hard start does NOT delete any content from
the Drive.
Managing Auto-shutdown
When the Media Drive is not connected to a power source, it automatically shuts
down after it’s been idle for 10 minutes. When you turn the Drive back on, it searches
for the strongest available Wi-Fi signal and connects to that network.
If the strongest Wi-Fi signal belongs to the Media Drive, there’s no need to do
anything further. But if it’s found another, stronger available Wi-Fi signal, you must
reconnect to the Drive.
1. Press the Media Drive power button for 3 seconds to restart it.
2. In your mobile device settings, go to Wireless and network > Wi-Fi settings and
select your Media Drive from the list of available Wi-Fi networks.
