ReadyNAS Duo V2 no Internet Connection
I've Got a ReadyNAS Duo V2 which works fine for storage and backups, but the unit itself isn't connected to the internet at all, and I can't seem to be able to get it to connect. I've just installed the latest firmware and the issue is still the same.

- Is your NAS configured to use DHCP or have you set a static I.P. address on it?
Are the DNS and Gateway settings correct? - It's got a static IP of 192.168.1.2
I have no idea what the DNS and Gateway settings should be. - Try 192.168.1.1 as GW and 8.8.8.8 for DNS
8.8.8.8 is Google's public DNS server.F.L. wrote: Try 192.168.1.1 as GW and 8.8.8.8 for DNS
There are some other choices - you might try pinging them, and pick the one with the shortest round trip time.

I know. It is just a quick way to test if it´s working.
Easy to change afterwards- I agree 8.8.8.8 is good to use for testing, and it is likely a reasonable choice for long-term use.
- Thanks that's all working now.
