    Hi eset

     

    Did you lost access on the shares and admin page? Have you tried rebooting? one way to reset the Network settings is to perform OS-Reinstall from the Boot menu, this will not affect your data and will only reset some settings like Network and the admin page password getting back to default.

     

    You have to make sure you follow the instructions carefully. Please see ReadyNAS 2120 Boot menu.

     

    Hope this helps!

     

     

    Regards

What firmware are you running on the NAS?  What MTU value did you set it to use?  Are you using link aggregation?

No link agregation. I set 9000. Firmware the latest.
