A router DHCP server gives IP only on the interface that has the same IP. On professional routers you can configure several IP addresses (my CISCO router serves 3 address ranges on the LAN because of that capability). If you have all the other devices on auto, then just change this IP address and you can leave it like this, the devices will get a new IP (perhaps after a reboot). However if you set addresses manually on those devices they won't be updated.
You could also use your computer with a static IP in the range of the NAS, directly link both devices via an ethernet cable (bypassing the router), connect the the admin interface, change the IP, then switch the PC back to auto.
