STORAGE SERVER USER’S GUIDE
192.168.0.254, with a Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0. (The
Storage Server's default IP Address is 192.168.0.2, with a
Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0). Remember that each device
needs a unique IP Address, and the same Subnet Mask.
Problem 2: Using the Storage Server Utility, the Storage Server is listed, but
the Admin button doesn't work.
Recommendation 2:The Storage Server's IP Address is not compatible with your PC’s. Use the
Quick Setup button to assign a compatible IP Address and Network Mask
(Subnet Mask) to the Storage Server, then click Refresh.
Problem 3: The Storage Server is configured, but I can't find it in Network
Neighborhood.
Recommendation 3:Try using Start>Find>Computer, and enter the Storage Server's name.
Or, use Control Panel>Network to check the following:
1. TCP/IP protocol is installed. If not, us e Add>Protocol>
Microsoft>TCP/IP to install it.
2. Check the network Bindings:
• Ensure the TCP/IP protocol is bound to your Network card
(NIC).
Select your Network card, click Properties, and then the
Bindings tab. If TCP/IP is not bound (checked), check it.
• Ensure the TCP/IP -> Network card entry is bound to the
Client for Microsoft Networks service.
Select the TCP/IP entry for your Network Card, click
Properties, and then the Bindings tab. If Client for
Microsoft Networks is not bound (checked), check it.
3. If you don't have a router, check that your IP Address is
compatible with the Storage Server's. This means it needs to be
from the same address range (e.g. 192.168.0.3 to
192.168.0.254) and using the same Subnet Mask (e.g.
255.255.255.0)
