Changing the IP Address
Normally, the LinkStation’s IP address is set automatically from a DHCP server on your network. If
you prefer, you can set it manually. To change the LinkStation’s IP address settings, your computer
should be connected to the same router (subnet) as the LinkStation and should be running NAS
Navigator2 (included on your LinkNavigator CD).
Uncheck [Obtain IP address automatically via DHCP.].
Enter the desired [IP Address] and [Subnet Mask]. Click
[OK], or [Apply] if you’re using a Mac.
