Netgear RN204 NAS set up and firmware.
I have 2ea RN204 units up and running now and they have been work horse machines... Recently my son in law gave me a unit with out drives he is not using but, no drives... I happen to have 4 WD...
For some reason when I do a factory reset and the unit comes up it sees my network and assigns an IP address for the network but for some reason it thinks its one of the other RN204s on my network and thinks its empty... at that point if I try to log on the Working RN 204 seems to be conflicting....
Do the working NAS have static IP addresses assigned? (On the NAS itself, not reserved in the router).
If they do, are those IP Addresses outside the DHCP pool?
Also, when you access the NAS web interface, are you using the IP address in your browser? Or are you using the hostname? Use the IP address for now.
