RN102 Invisible on network after move
Heya, Got this RN102 that's been a tank for years and has already suffered through several moves. This move, when rebuilding my lan, I am unable to get the RN102 registered on the network. T...

Machine A (10.245.95.166) can "see" the nas (10.245.95.110) but cannot access it. As previously stated, all ports (read: protocols) on the nas are closed/inaccessible. There's no firewalls involved; just something fecked on the device.
But your RAIDar screenshot says the NAS IP address is 192.168.1.10 which is not compatible with 10.245.95.x. Where are you seeing the 10.245.95.110 address?
That suggests that your old network was 192.168.1.x, and that you'd assigned the NAS a static address. The most direct way to fix it is to change the router to use the 192.168.1.x address space temporarily, which would then allow you to access the NAS.
You can also try doing an OS reinstall on the NAS - which will reset the NAS to use DHCP and also reset the admin password back to password. It also turns off volume quota (which is on the settings wheel on the volume tab).
btw - the ping fails with a "port unreachable"...
Just like nmap, it shows the NAS drive (and this Raidar) says both drives are there and healthy, as you can see in the attached screenie, but when I attempt to hit the admin page, it tells me that "Your NETGEAR storage is not accessible from this computer. Check your network settings."

That's usually caused by the PC and NAS not being on the same subnet (usually due to an outdated static IP on one) or a firewall (including the PC not seeing that subnet as private).
I've hooked the nas directly to a pc with the only network the wired connection between the two and got the same results.
I've moved the machine to hang directly off the router with another machine. Same results.
Regardless of where the nas is on the network, and all my machines are on the same subnet, I get the same results.
So, really, I think the important question is becoming:
If I pull these drives and install them in another appliance, will my data still be accessible or is there proprietary formatting done to the drives? (Will have to buy another Netgear shell in order to access the data?) (Restating that the drives are configured to be mirrored, not striped.)
Thanks!
