Check for updates not connecting
Hi all, I am suddenly having issues updating my Ready Nas 212. When I'm in the admin page, I click on check for updates, and I get an error: "Operation timeout. Communication error. Check your in...
I'd enable ssh and connect in that way (using root as the username, with the NAS admin password). For instance, enter ssh root@nas-ip-address from the windows search bar (or from terminal if you are using a Mac).
First see if you can ping 8.8.8.8
If that is successful, see if you can ping dns.google.com
Hi, thanks for your reply. I seemed to have fixed it. Somehow the router settings on the ReadyNas NIC itself said 192.168.4.1. Not sure how that happened. I changed it to 192.168.1.1 and rebooted. I was then able to update the firmware, and set the date/time sync to the internet. Any ideas on how that may have changed like that?
