I got my readynas duo from a friend and I have no clue how to use it
I have tried to connect the readynas to my router using the ethernet cable and i have run RAIDar but i cant find the device. Can someone tell me what exactly I need to do.
I have found out that the Readynas i have is a duo v1 though i'm not sure f the more specific model name.
What apps should I be using other than RAIDar.
I have followed the ReadyNAS reset instructions but I don't think it is connected to the router yet. There is no ethernet light on the router and no light indicators on the NAS either.
There is definitely no problem with the cable as i have tried different ethernet cables and it still doesn't work so the problem is something else.
If it has disks installed, then try powering down and removing them. Then power up again. You should see LED indicators on the NAS and the fan will be fairly loud.
RAIDar should also be able to find it on your network, and give you a "no disks" status. https://kb.netgear.com/20684/ReadyNAS-Downloads#raidar
