Hi,
This is my first post on the forum. I can't gain access to the N5200PRO after doing a WAN/LAN exchange and turned the 4 ports into an unmanaged switch. It's probably my fault as I'm a noob when it comes to networking.
N5200PRO BR (firmware v2.00.00.11) IP settings:
WAN: 192.168.1.100
LAN: 192.168.3.0
two ports on the WAN directly connect to the following:
192.168.1.1 (router/ADSL)
192.168.1.14 (pc, IP assigned by router)
The PC on 192.168.1.14 connects successfully to the internet so the switch on the N5200 seems to be working now but I can't access the web interface 192.168.1.100 or access the folders on the RAID array \\192.168.1.100 (i've tried 192.168.3.0 as well)
As far as i know, it's not the DHCP server on 192.168.1.1 (there's large enough pool of addresses to accommodate the N5200 IP address). I've tried switching the DHCP server off (to no effect) and changing the N5200 WAN and LAN IP addresses around using the front display panel management console but the settings aren't kept for some reason.
I've run out of ideas and it's not clear in the manual if the 'Reset to Default' option in the management console resets the RAID array and I would end up loosing all the data on it!
Any help would be much appreciated,
Thanks
