Frequently Asked Questions

Q: I Forgot the Login or Password

A:If you forget your network IP address or your password, you can reset the MaxNAS to its default settings. Please see “Resetting your MaxNAS” in the troubleshooting section.

Q: I forgot my IP Address/I can’t find the MaxNAS on the network!

A:The current IP Address for both LAN1 and LAN2 will be displayed on the LCD screen. If you do not have physical access to the MaxNAS, you may use the MaxNAS Setup wizard on the MaxNAS product CD. You may also download the wizard from MicroNet’s support site at www.micronet.com/support

Q: I’m having trouble map a network share in Windows

A:Windows only allows connection to a network resource using a single set of user credentials. The network resource you are trying to acces may have already been accessed using a different user name and password. To connect using

a different user name and password, first disconnect any existing mappings to this network share. To check out existing

network connections, open a command prompt and type “net use”; You may then disconnect the sessions by typing

net use <session> /DELETE

where <session> is the session revealed

above (illustrated right.) Alternatively, the most sure way to clear all existing network connection is to log out and back in to your Windows session.
