How to setup ReadyNAS 104 WITHOUT USING ReadyCLOUD?

I have absolute zero interst in having any of my data stored in the cloud.  Also, I don't need to access my data from any where except my our network.

 

So having said that, t how do I setup the ReadyNAS 104 without using ReadyCLOUD?

 

Thanks,

TD

  • You can find the I.P. address in multiple different ways:

    1. Momentarily press power button and the LCD on the NAS should turn on and show the I.P. address
    2. looking for the MAC address of the ethernet port in the NAS using your router's attached devices list.
    3. You can use RAIDar (note this is a local discovery tool that requires Java). It is not necessary to use RAIDar but it is a useful tool.

    All you really need to do is turn on the NAS with blank disks installed.  Then browse to https://nasipaddress/admin.  If it prompts for account credentials use admin/password.
