Unable to access Duo/Frontview after installing FiOS Modem
Hey Guys, Help! I've had my ReadyNas Duo running beautifully for well over a year at this point. I have Verizon FiOS internet at my house, but being a Mac user, I did some research and was able ...
Did you perhaps set up the Duo to use a static IP address?
One way is to temporarily restore your old AEBS setup, log into the Duo and change the IP address to be assigned dynamically through DHCP. Shut down the Duo, put the FIOS router back in place, and then restart.
A second way is to use the directconnect procedure. Connect your Mac directly to the NAS, and configure the Mac's IP address to 10.0.1.3. You should then be able to reach the NAS, and reset the IP address.
A third way is to do an OS reinstall, which should also reset the IP config. That will also reset your admin password, but the rest of your configuration and data should be intact. The main challenge is to make sure you don't accidentally do a factory default. Personally I avoid messing with the boot menu on my Duo, because the lack of an LCD panel makes me very nervous that I won't select the right choice. But if you want to try it, the guide is at http://www.readynas.com/?page_id=5029
BTW, if you use static addresses with the FIOS router, be sure you never assign addresses above .63 At least with mine, they are assigned to the MoCa (coax) devices. This is not obvious, and AFAIK it is not possible to override.
