NETGEAR Stora
Connect Stora to Your Network
The initial setup completion time is approximately 20 minutes. Be sure your unit has ample
ventilation. Avoid putting the unit in a location where it could be easily knocked over. Do not
place items on top of Stora, or place liquids near or on top of the unit; the ventilation vents are
on the top of Stora.
To connect Stora to your network:
1. Connect one end of the provided Ethernet cable to your router and the other end to the
back of Stora unit.
2. Plug in the power adapter to a power source and connect the other end to the unit.
When you finish connecting your Stora unit, your network should resemble the following
figure.
3. Press the Power button to power up your unit.
The power LED flickers while the unit boots and obtains an IP address; then it turns solid
blue. The first time you turn the unit on, the disk LEDs are solid amber. After you
complete the setup, the disk LED indicators are solid green.
Note: The router in your network needs to have an Ethernet port available
to connect the Stora unit to the router via the Ethernet cable. Your
router also needs to be configured to automatically provide an IP
address for your network devices.
Configure Your Stora
Use the CD that comes with the Stora unit to configure your device and make it ready for
storing data. At this time you can also give your unit a unique name, and assign your own
user name and password.
If you do not have the Resource CD, see you can download the setup software from the
NETGEAR support website.
