Router IP address is set to 192.168.1.1 while Readynas IP address is set to 192.168.1.90 with subnet and gateway to the D-Link's IP address.I still can not access my readynas.

Do you mean that you cannot access the NAS web UI, or do you mean that you cannot access the files using file explorer?

Did you have access before, and then suddenly lost it?  If so, did something change on the network (new router, new PC, etc)?

 Best not to create confusion on this point.  Once you know what you have, just call it that.

 

The original Duo (v1) 

  • runs 4.1.x firmware
  • says ReadyNAS Duo on the front panel
  • often has a v2 label on the back or bottom (indicating a minor hardware revision).

The Duo v2

  • runs 5.3.x firmware
  • says ReadyNAS Duo v2 on the front panel

      What address is the router assigning to your PC?

       

      Have you tried just setting the NAS to use DHCP instead of assigning it a static IP address?

        Have not tried that yet.I was hoping to use a static IP since my router or network runs on a static IP but not DHCP.
