Orbi DHCP static ip Qnap with dual NICs
Router Firmware Version V2.1.2.18 Hi, I have a Qnap NAS with 2 NICs which are both ethernet cabled into Orbi router. How do I assign a static ip address when 2 MAC addresses? Thanks.
I dont know anything about that qnap NAS but I am guessing that it relies on a feature that the Orbi does not have. I scanned the Orbi manual and I dont see any references to port aggregation. The point of the dual NIC's is to give you more bandwidth and some failover capability in the case of one of the NIC's failing but it needs support from the switch/router to work. I'm sure someone more familiar with the Orbi will chime in if I am mistaken.
