4. Managing Your GoFlex Satellite™ Device

Your GoFlex Satellite device safely shuts down and restarts. When it is fully powered on and

broadcasting wirelessly, it appears in the list of wireless networks on your device. You will

need to reconnect to your GoFlex Satellite device. See "Step 4: Connecting to Your GoFlex

Satellite Network" on page 7.

Shutting Down the GoFlex Satellite Device

Turning off the GoFlex Satellite device can be completed in one of two ways: by pressing the

Power button or from the GoFlex Media Settings screen. When you turn off your GoFlex

Satellite device, it stops broadcasting wirelessly.

To shut down the GoFlex Satellite device from the app or browser

From the GoFlex Media app or if you are using a browser, select Settings.

Select Shut Down Satellite.

Restoring the GoFlex Satellite device returns it to its original factory defaults. All the files

stored on your GoFlex Satellite device are retained—no files or folders are deleted—but all

other settings, such as the your GoFlex Satellite device name and password, are removed.

You may need to perform this task in the event that you forget your password. Pressing the

factory default button on the bottom of the GoFlex Satellite device performs the same

function.

To restore your GoFlex Satellite device

Make sure that no one is watching a video, viewing photos, listening to music, or working with

any other file stored on your GoFlex Satellite device.

Using a paperclip, press and release the factory defaults button. The factory defaults button

is located on the bottom of the GoFlex Satellite device.

The GoFlex Satellite device name is changed back to "GoFlex Satellite" and any password you

may have set is erased. See "Changing the Name of Your GoFlex Satellite Device" on page 28

or "Setting a Password" on page 28 to reset these preferences.
