Bug: router IP not updated when changing ip of network

Hi,
Due to some internet provider imposed changes in my setup, I had to change the IP addresses of my LAN from 192.168.1.x to 192.168.2.x. This works fine, except that Readynas Photo II apparantly still looks for the old router address (192.168.1.1 instead of 192.168.2.1).

I have not yet tried to uninstall and reinstall PhotoII.

I suppose this is a bug...

    Have you checked that the settings under Network > Interfaces and Network > Global Settings in Frontview are correct?

    yep! And everything else works as expected, network-wise.

    Do you mean power cycling it (done that) or erase the config completely?
    All other appliances, incl webcams work as expected.

    Just power cycling.
  • now tried to uninstall and then reinstall - no luck.
    Yohdah, maybe you could try to see what happens in your end if you change the network address(?)
    I changed the third number in my network from 192.168.1.xxx to 192.168.2.xxx and then it broke down RN-PII

    sorry to bump - but I am just curious to know if anything is being done here ;-)

    I can add that 1.0.4 does not solve the problem - how about enabling manual setting of the router IP settings?
  • I still have this problem. Are there any suggestions - anybody??
  • 1) Warning: Router at 192.168.1.1 does not respond ...

    The message "Warning: Router at 192.168.1.1 does not respond to UPnP request." in the first post is second level router. This message is shown when there is two (or more) levels of router to reach internet, and second one from NAS is not responding to UPnP request.

    ReadyNAS Photos II daemon trying to configure all router between NAS and Internet. If the first router does not respond to UPnP command, then it treated as error. If the second one doesn't respond to UPnP command, it treat as warning, because most of case this router is built-in to ADSL/Cable modem and all port is pre-set as pass through.

    So this warning can be ignored.

    2) Error: Fail to access Photos II

    Server side has some issue performing this diagnostics item. Please re-run diag if still this error exist.

    This error message means router(s) does not forward request onto port 8086 to the NAS.
