Flaky REadyNAS behaviour
Hi, I have a ReadyNAS Duo, apparently running firmware version 4.1.10. Environment is Windows 7 home network. Several ethernet hubs and a BT Home Hub router. AVG anti-virus and firewall. It has been...
Just to close this thread off, in case it is of use to others: It turns out that the ReadyNAS "disappearing" from the network was due to a rogue DHCP server (a Belkin wireless extender that was supposed to have DHCP disabled but apparently did not) popping up every now and then. Removing the extender seems to have made the ReadyNAS much more reliable.
I will say, though, that I have mucked about with other DHCP-server-enabled devices on the network and all other devices seem to recover quite happily. The ReadyNAS seems to be a bit more fragile in that respect.
