Raidar don't find Readynas NV+ V2 after installing new network

I did a factory reset (I have a recent back-up). On the display a see 82.176.27.166 but Raidar can not find it. I have a deco mesh system.

That is a public internet address, not a usual local LAN address.  So you might want to check your network configuration.

How can I change my network configuration that my mesh system the NAS recognise.

Whatever network configuration, whatever Mesh system? Wild guess might be your network is direct connected to what does provide a public IP address, something like a CPE, cable modem, ... and at least the computer seems to get a public IP address assigned.

  • I have a deco X60 mesh system. 
  • Does it make sense to disconnect the system from the modem and then do an OS reinstall. Will the Readynas get a local address that will be recognized by Raidar after rebooting?

Start with a correct installation and configuration of this Deco M60 system. Like every common consumer router, there is not WAN or Internet port which has to be connected to the Cable Modem, everything else belongs to the LAN side of the Deco M60 system.

 

After doing so, please power-boot everything, cable modem, mesh system and probably the ReadyNAS, too.

 

Best starting point might be some magic documentation certainly coming with the Deco system I'm afraid - we're not TP-Link.

No need to do an OS reinstall.  The problem is that you've hooked up the NAS to a WAN port, and it needs to be connected to a LAN port.

 

Have you connected it to the modem?  Or have you connected it to one of the X60 LAN ports?

Re: Raidar don't find Readynas NV+ V2 after installing new network

I had the NAS in a switch. Now I put the NAS directly in the head X60 and now Raidar can find the Nas with the message ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH In the past, there was also a notification. If you agreed that windows was less secure, you could go into the Nas. With this notification, you can search and go to copilot, but not open the NAS. Are there now easy ways to modify windows so that the NAS works

Where ever the switch was connected to, this reads like a big user-made mess mixind and interconnecting two Ethernet networks whch never should be connected.

If you realy wish to continue operating a more than legacy device, you have to accept some compromise. I could be wrong (and not seeking workarounds deep enough in Windows Edge or Chrome wirh the energy I'm not intended to waste effort on) and the only temporary way out might be to operate a current Firefox (122.0.1 (64-bit) as of writing) with the  security.tls.version.min set to 1 https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1101896

Whatever Copilot you talk of, I guess it's the GPT-3, optional GPT-4 and Microsoft-baked AI sometimes poping-up as a Web page, or as an App available on iOS and Android. This does certainly bring a lot of new possibilities, proably even the answer similar to the one I've offered above.

OK, that is not surprising.  I'm guessing you haven't tried to log into your NAS for about a year.  This error is because your NAS doesn't support TLS 1.2 - and about a year ago the browsers started requiring TLS 1.2 to connect with https.

 

You can log in with FireFox if you make a settings change.  Set security.tls.version.min to 1 (browse to about:config and search for the setting).

 

There are a couple of other options once you regain access.  But we'd need to know the firmware you are running on the NAS.  Are you running 4.1.x firmware or are you running 5.3.x?

Re: Raidar don't find Readynas NV+ V2 after installing new network

I am using 5.3 I'm much further along. I can get into the NAS. I still have a problem with the test email. I chose the same username and password for Mozilla as for gmail. With test message I get the message "Failed to send test email message" Also with a yahoo email address I get the same error message. For administrator password I kept password. Can I enter it with admin/password after closing?

I can see the NAS on all my windows computers. I just can't copy anything from my hard drive to NAS. I just changed the name of the workgroup and access type is local users. Shares have everyone listed as read/write

Best to change it to something else.

 

Either way, you can set up the browser to automatically apply the password.  Also, you can set up Windows to do the same with the Windows Credential Manager.

Likely you are using "Guest" access on the PCs, and are not using the NAS credentials.  By default Windows presents your PC logon to the NAS.  If there is no NAS account with that user name, you end up with guest access.  

 

While you can use "admin" as the user name for the NAS, generally it is better to create a user account on the NAS, and use that instead.
