ReadyNAS Duo v1 will not connect to LAN - Faulty NIC ?
Hi, It seems I'm having some issues with connecting my ReadyNAS Duo to my new home-network and I'm at a loss as to why this is. Here is what happens; when I connect my ReadyNAS to my Zyxel modemr...
Made a backup of the drive by copying it onto a external USB drive. Then performed the standard procedure for reinstalling the OS from the internal flash storage.
Thus far there is no change.

Hi Eorlund,
If that's the case, the least thing you can do now is to perform a factory reset. If that won't make a difference, I would say that the NIC is already broken or no longer working.
Kind regards,

We know the NIC is working, since with a direct connect \\192.168.168.168 works in windows explorer. Frontview is not accessible, and DHCP is not working.
I strongly recommend getting all the data off the NAS before you try anything.
After that, you could try an OS reinstall (which might work), or go directly to the factory reset (which I think is very likely to work).
