RAX120 Multi-Gig Won't Connect to NAS
Hello. I'm trying to connect my Synology 1618+ to my RAX120 through the E10G18-T2 PCI-e card installed on the NAS to the Multi-Gig port on the RAX120. I am unable to get any kind of connection displayed on the NAS, says disconnected. If I unplug the same cable from the RAX120 and plug it into my SX10 switch 10Gbe port, it instantly works. Any help on how to correct the issue would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Have the RAX120 set up as aggreagation to the SX10. I'm trying to plug the 1618+ into the Multi-Gig on the RAX120. All firmware is up to date.
Contacted support, but was told I would receive a return call in 48 hours.

Hi, There is no word on the Synology E10G18-T2 Specifications that this card is MultiGig capable for handling 2.5GBase-T (that's what the RAX120 port is) and 5GBase-T - only 10GBase-T is listed (interestingly not even the commonly workably 1000MBase-T.
Wrong card for this purpose I'm afraid - not a Netgear issue at all.
- Thank you for the help! Apparently the single port version of the card, E10G18-T1, does support 2.5G/5G but not the dual port. Strange. Also read on a couple review sites claiming it supported 2.5 and 5.
Guess I need a new card. Thank you very much for your help.That's strange - Robbie does claim both come with the Aquantia AQtion AQC107 NIC, supporting 10/5/2.5/1Gbps and 100Mbps speeds.
Hello,
I face the problem excatly same as ~l0whit07~.....is there any way to connect Synology 1618+ to RAX120 through the E10G18-T2 PCI-e card on NAS to the Multi-Gig port on the RAX120 ?
if there is no way to make it happen, any suggestion for other PCI-e card to replace E10G18-T2 PCI-e card ?
Thanks
