I removed the RN2xx version and installed the general version. (What is the difference between the versions ? as i would assume the RN2xx is the one specificaly created for this NAS) I again wasn't able to open the webpage however i found an option in the shares page called dlna.

Did you install the R2xx version or the more generic version?
Is port 32400 forwarded in your router?
What happens if you click on the plex media server link the the web admin system/overview page?

I indeed installed the RN2xx version as the unit is the RN202. Is this the wrong version then ?? and which one must i pick then ?

If i click on the web link i receive the 'page can not be openend' message in the webbrowser. The port is not specific open on the router as i don't want to allow internet access to the nas. I try this from my own local network

Welcome to the community!
Please install the other version (without the RN2XX).
