Hello!
just fixed the issue.
The problem was on NAS network interface configuration on Speed/Duplex mode configuration.
It was set to Automatic, after changing to 100Mbps Full duplex it started working in all previous cases.
Hope it helps other people with same issue.
PD: I'm not able to updat FW manually neither autmatically...

So, Yes! i'm using 192.168.0.140, wich is working when I directly connect to my laptop.
Is your router also using 192.168.0.x addresses?

yes it is.
I have tested just connecting NAS to switch not router (to avoid any interference with DHCP server) and i got same behavior.

This worked ok before, correct? Is there something that changed on the network (new router, etc)?
Also check that the LAN leds are lit on the duo and the switch (or router) when you connect it to the main network.
If the leds are lit, then see if RAIDar can see the NAS ( http://kb.netgear.com/20684/ReadyNAS-Downloads?cid=wmt_netgear_organic#raidar )

The DHCP server spans the whole subnet, and switches don't change that. It would rule out a failed LAN port on the router.
What router are you using?

Hello,
yes, NAS worked before then we disconnected (power supply and ethernet for some months).
Now i try to put it working again but it is working just when i directly connect to my PC.
Let me summarize my setups in order to clarify which case is working:
(all following cases setting static IP to NAS, 192.168.0.140 that is same subnet as my pc and all devices on home network. No other device has same IP)
- NAS -> PC = NAS connection OK but little bit slow
- NAS -> SWITCH -> PC (no other devices connected and all ports tested) = Nas Connection NOK
- NAS -> SWITCH -> PC (other devices connected and communicating well to my PC, all ports tested) = NAS connection NOK
- NAS -> Router -> PC (no other devices connected and all ports tested) = Nas Connection NOK
- NAS -> Router -> PC (other devices connected and communicating well to my PC, all ports tested) = NAS connection NOK
I've noticed that when connected to Switch or router takes long time to lit LAN leds (maybe 5 minutes).
EDIT1: When directly connecting NAS to my PC takes about 20 seconds to lit LAN leds (other devices connected to my PC takes less than 1 seccond to lit)
Other topic is, why I can not update FW when directly connected to my PC?
Thank you for your support.
