Title: Connect dns-320 directly to pc
Post by: xavi87 on December 08, 2011, 02:49:14 PM

Hi! I bought a dns-320 some months ago, and, i've been using it connected to my wireless router. But, the transfer speed was too low so now i want to connect it directly to my computer with a crossover cable. so, it is already connected but, i can't get in it. i used the cd to try to see the NAS but it doens't appear. can someone help me how i connect it?

kind regards
Xavi,

I've done it by enabling static IP instead of DHCP client on your DNS-320. When you assign a known IP, e.g. 192.168.1.150, you can always connect to it.

thank you so much for your quick response. I'm now connected directly with 23 MB/s
