Question:  Is the unit completely dead, or do you still have access to the files?

I assumed since you didn't say it was dead that you still had file access.  If that is indeed the case, one other thing you can try is to reset the unit to factory defaults and reconfigure manually, don't read in a saved configuration.  That cures many ills with this box.

I have access to the NAS on my network and remotely. I just can't access the web login for admin of the NAS.

I had the same issue where I could not log in to the admin page, it would cycle back to the login even though correct credentials were entered. Removing and replacing the BT client solved it for me. I now run the box for months at a time without restarting and I can access the admin options.

I don't use BT.

Or just assign static IP addresses to your devices including the NAS.

I am on a static IP.

what do you get when you enter the IP address of the DNS-323 in your web browser ?

Did you try restoring to factory defaults and reconfiguring?  How about removing any add-ons as a test?  I'll bet one of those measures will restore normal operation, because there are tons of people running the plain DNS-323 with that firmware.

What happens if you ping it? If it pings ok then why not SSH to it and have a look about if you know some linux? Install funplug and get SSH setup then type 'top' once you are logged in as root - that will give a readout of what's running, cut and paste it here and I'll have a look.

For more info on that I have the links in my guide for installing 4k sector drives here: http://forums.dlink.com/index.php?topic=14484.0

Oh, and have you tried (when it fails) booting up a different browser and trying with that?

John, what are add-ons?

[gunrunnerjohn]

Add-ons are things like BitTorrent, NFS, SharePort, and no-ip.DDNS, Firefly, etc.  They're applications you can install to expand the capability.  If you haven't installed any of these, I'd try simply resetting to factory defaults and see if that resolves the issue.
