Cannot access Nas.

I've been forced to change my internet router.

The Nas is connected to a switch.

in the router, all devices are showing as 192.168.1.66, 192.168.1.67 etc etc etc.

which the REadynas NVX used to... but, now that i have changed the router it appears as 92.27.22.121

and, i cannot access. the router sees it, but typing in 92.27.22.121/admin doesn't work. and i have no idea why it has a strange IP address.

windows sort of sees it, ie: i cannot map a drive letter, as it doesn't see it. under control Panel/view network devices, it doesn't appear.

but, under control panel, ''View your basic network information and set up connections'' to the right is text ''see full map'... clicking that, shows the NAS as well as the other computers, printers etc.

The NAS itself on the front, shows 92.27.22.121.

i cannot ping it from windows either.

  • ok to make things more confusing... if i go into a browser, and goto a place that tells me my IP address.. its currently saying 92.27.22.121
    which is the address the nas is displaying O.o

    in the router if i click on mynas, it says IP address assignment DHCP.
  • aha, i think you have it.. i plugged the lan cable into the Other port on the nas... as soon as i swapped it.. it gave it a 168.. etc number

    many thanks.. !!
