ReadyNAS 102 - Failed to install applications (any)
Evening all, I bought a ReadyNAS 102 in January, after an initial setup I installed OwnCloud and then decided I did not want it so I uninstalled it. This had the unusual side effect of uninstallin...
- Turns out the DNS was set incorrectly and the NAS could not connect to the internet. Refreshing the DNS on the NAS resolved the problem.
I just performed a Factory Reset. My NAS always had ip:192.168.0.13 before and now after the reset it dynamically appointed ip:192.168.0.12. I have a few netork devices that I would need to change, so i thought I would set static ip:192.168.0.13.
Then when I went to install apps, it would not download due to a connection issue.
changed back to dynamic ip:192.168.0.12 and apps install no problem now.
just thought i'd share this...

More than likely some other device was given 192.168.0.13 while the NAS was down.
Generally it is best if you reserve the IP address in the router and continue to use DHCP.
If you can't do that (or don't want to), you set the DHCP range in the router to something like 192.168.0.2 - 192.168.0.64 and use higher addresses like 192.168.0.65 - 192.168.0.254 for your static addresses.
Excellent! Thanks. I have reserved the IP on my router, good idea.
Thanks again :)
