Thanks
If you purchased new, you do have 90 day phone support which covers installation. It might be good to use that.

I have tried another device in the network socket of the RN102 and that works.
I want to clarify this - I am guessing that you mean you tested the network port io your router that is connected to the NAS. Let me know if I have that right.
What model is the router?
Try downloading RAIDar (http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/20684/~/readynas-downloads?cid=wmt_netgear_organic) and see if it can find the NAS. It should be able to do this even if the RN102 can't get an IP address.
Yeah.
I am connection it to a wired switch from the router, which my pc is also connected.
I used the suppled cable for my pc and that was fine a and connected my pc to the NAS scoket and that was fine.
The Model is RN10200.
There is IO activity on the socket at the back and on the switch (green light flashing) but it does not get an IP address from the router DHCP server.
I saw a youtube tutorial on doing afactory reset, mine does not seem to flash the same lights. After rebooting with the reset button pressed and selecting disk 1 then pressing reset again only the power light flashes for a few seconds then that is it.
Thank you
