frontview?

What does RAIDar report for the IP address of the NAS?

You should be able to access Frontview by opening your browser to https://ip.address.of.nas/admin

If that fails to work, are you otherwise able to access the NAS (for example, accessing your shares over CIFS/SMB, AFP, FTP, etc.) or via SSH? If you can still access you data one of the aforementioned methods, it's possible that the HTTP process that runs Frontview has died. A simple reboot may cure it.

hi that didnt work, i cant set up my ultra 2 it is aking to change the ip address but i cant because i can not get into frontview?

If it's a brand new setup (no data or anything), I would just try factory defaulting the unit. This will test, initialize, format and install the base OS and allow you to configure from RAIDar.

I've never seen anything like that before. What program is asking this?

it is windows?
i cant access anything? no software nothing i have rebooted/reset the nas but still nothing?
i am sick of it!
can i ask if iam doing things right, i have the nas connected to my pc? should it be connected to the wireless box directly then move it to my pc when it is set up?
thanks

The NAS should be connected to your router or switch via ethernet cable, not directly to the PC. Similar to this:

thanks for that, ok so can i use it wireless once it is set up? i have my pc upstairs and my router downstairs so could i move the nas upstairs or will i have to leave it next to the router connected via ethernet cable?
thanks
mark

ps my pc uses the router wireless

You could try a direct connection but a NAS really shines when connected to the network, thus letting all PC's, phones, mobile devices, etc... on the network have access to the NAS goodness :lol: .
