IP of the drive (per RaidAr) is 192.168.0.11
IP of the drive (per windows via direct cabling) is 192.168.168.168

. Make a note of the existing IP address range that is used on the LAN. This can be done from a Windows PC which is currently working on the LAN.
Open a command prompt, Click Start > type CMD.
In CMD type ipconfig and hit enter..png)
In this example the existing network subnet is 192.168.1.0/24, a host IP address in the range of 192.168.1.2 through to 192.168.1.254 will allow a host access to the network.
The network subnet in your network can be different, the values used here are just for example and will not work in every network.The best approach here is to reserve an address for the NAS in your router. That combines all the benefits of the a static address with the benefits of router management.
So I'd look there first.
Don't mess with the route page.
Your screen shot shows 192.168.0.x for the ReadyNAS, but your PC is clearly using is 198.168.1.x. So something is wrong with your overall setup. Can you tell us more about what your network looks like (routers, access points, switches). It looks like you might have two routers deployed (at least two DHCP servers).
Hi Stephen, thanks for your reply, set is as follows (Screenshots below)
