R7000 Router not showing wired device
Hi - I've recently plugged in a Synology NAS device into the back of my R7000 wifi router as the NAS doesn't have wifi. On a previous network, I could see the NAS and interact with it, but on the R70...
Be sure the networking on the NAS is set for auto obtain IP addressing. Check with the mfr of this NAS box for help and support regarding this. Possible a reset on the NAS maybe needed. Check first.
Be sure your using a good quality LAN cable between the router and NAS box.
Power OFF the NAX and router for 30 seconds then back ON with the router then NAS. NAS should appear getting an IP address on the routers web page.

Hi
I'm looking directly in the router firmware (via 192.168.1.1) and also on the Nighthawk app.
Firmware version V1.0.7.6_1.1.99
Modem is a Netgear CM1000. It only has one LAN port which is used to connect the wifi router. I have plugged the NAS into the WiFI router as it has a bank on LAN ports.
I hope this helps.

Looking where? Attached devices?
What about Windows networks?
This is a good alternative for Windows and Macs:

Be warned that the genie installation file is wrapped up in a RAR archive that you have to decompress and install.
Netgear is trying to kill this useful utility.
I've now got this utility, but still not showing any wired devices - all are wifi.
I'll try the reboot options suggested by others
