Or maybe you should have purchased a current model instead of one that was discontinued several years ago (assuming listed model number is correct). Since you obviously purchased it used, you may have purchased junk -- but not because it was built as such. Or, there could be an operator headspace issue.
You are likely having trouble because of increased security implemented on SMB (Windows network protocol) and HTTPS in the years since that NAS was a current model. There are work-arounds for them. But without details and an attitude adjustment, you're unlikely to get any assistance.
But I'll give you the first clue: You can't do anything without a hard drive installed.
