Cannot access my ReadyNAS

I have a Netgear ReadyNASRND2110 that used to be accessed from my previous router, but after switched to Google WIFI I cannot "see" the device from windows anymore. According to Google support I need the port number to open up the Google router. Does anybody know where to find the port number?

    Don't know what they are thinking, but that is incorrect.

    Did you configure a static IP address on the NAS? If so, it is likely that your new router is using a different IP address space.

     

    Try using RAIDar and see if it can find the NAS (version 6.5 is fine for this): https://kb.netgear.com/20684/ReadyNAS-Downloads

     

    If it does discover the address, then check the first three fields (xxx.xxx.xxx ) with the ones used by your new router.  If they don't match, then the NAS IP address is no longer compatible with your network.  There are a couple of ways to fix this, but let's first confirm that is the problem.

      RAIDar discovers the NAS from PC, and IP adress are found 192.168.1.1, status i "in good shape" :-)

      Now I need to try to find out there to find the IP adress on the Google router.

      TIps?

        Hi Fralle01,

         

        May I know the IP address of your Google router?

         

        Do the first three fields of the ReadyNAS' IP address and Google router's IP address match?
