Station is simpler than you might think and opens up a world of functionality and nerdyness that you never had before All this with no firmware flashing which ultimately means no data loss and no risk of bricking your box. My motivation to enable SSH came about when my older Link. Station a 5. 00. GB HS DHGL was doing a Disk Backup to my newer one a 2. TB LS WXL and it just seemed to be taking forever. It turned out the backup had hung part way through and the only official way to fix this problem as listed on Buffalos support website was to reset the box back to factory settings Thats a bit ridiculous in my opinion but there is a work around, see this post here for more information on how to unstick a backup. The activation process is done by a program called ACP Commander which is a command line tool that can be a little confusing to work at times with its lack of user friendly interface if you search for this online youll see what I mean however by chance I came across a reworked version that has a decent interface and is fairly easy to use. Enabling SSHThe following guide will assume that you are on the same network as your Link. Station and are able to access it freely as you normally would day to day,  also if you want to keep your warranty with Buffalo do not continueNotes. This method is proven to work on both Windows and Mac for the following modelsfirmware LS WXLv. HS DHGLv. 2. 1. LS QVLv. Common out of the box commands include top process viewer, vi text editor, cp copy files, mv move files. Mine and my friends newer Link. Stations had HTOP installed Epic Enabling SSH will no doubt void your warranty with Buffalo but who needs that anyway I didnt create the program recommended and take no credit for it. Finally, if you could let me know if you encounter any problems or can confirm if this works for other models Id be grateful. Thanks to Callum for confirming this works on the LS QVL and Michael for confirming this works on the TS XR5 with version 1. Incoming search terms Related.
