Hello guys, i am new to community! I always was windows user and i never had linux experience. This is the reason i open this topic because i cant fully understand the existing topics. I'm really sorry! In the past months i installed DSM 5.2 on my PC with jun's bootloader and i was ok. But now i want to go to DSM 7 because everything is outdated. I tried to install redpill's for DS918+. I edited the grub file but synology assistant never finds my machine. I think the problem is the lan driver. My motherboard is G41M-VS3. I found drivers of Contributors pocopico and jimmyGALLAND here https://github.com/pocopico/rp-ext but i cant understand how to add them. I would like to have a very starter guide because it's easy for me to get lost. Thanks in advance and really sorry for this! Edit: Now i understood that i opened this topic in wrong section and i feel worse. Really sorry!

I installed Xpenology DSM 6.1-15047 on an AMD desktop successfully. Everything has been working fine with one exception. The motherboard is an ECS A880LM-M with an AMD Phenom II 6 core processor and 16G of RAM. The issue is the onboard LAN is only 100 Mbps so transfer speeds are bottle necked by this. I purchased an Intel EXPI9301CTBLK NIC card and installed it. When booting the system up there was no network connection with the new NIC card. I changed the Ethernet to the onboard LAN and it then connected. My next step was to reboot and disable the onboard LAN in the BIOS thinking there was a conflict. This failed to solve the issue as there still was no connection with either Ethernet port. I noticed on my Diskstation under Control Panel > Network Interface that there was LAN 1 -- (the new NIC card) and LAN 2 -- (the onboard LAN). The onboard LAN (LAN 2) showed "connected" and displayed the correct IP address. The new NIC card (LAN 1) showed "disconnected" and displayed a different IP address and a different IPv6 address. An additional note: to be absolutely certain that the NIC card was functioning properly, I disconnected the storage drives and USB boot stick and connected an SSD with Windows 7 installed, booted it up, installed the NIC card drivers and connected to the internet. The card worked fine. Then shut it down, disconnected the Windows SSD, reconnected the storage drives and USB boot stick, booted up and no connection on the new NIC card. Does anyone here see what the fix is for this? Thanks in advance! Peter

Hi all, I'm trying to setup a server. I have connected my usb and power on the computer. I can see the balck screen which shows that all is OK but when I run the assistan from other computer, I can't see the diskstation and if I go into muy router, I don't see the computer connected. I have a motherboard AsRock 775-Dual Vsta with a VIA PHY VT6103 ethernet. Could the problem be an incopatibility with this card?

Moin, habe mir gestern Abend unfreiwillig den Stecker selbst gezogen. Nach dem ich vor Kurzem mein Netzwerk in mehrere VLANs unterteilt habe, stand dann die Umstellung auf der NAS von IP Adresse und VLAN ID an. Nach dem ich mich jedoch auf der Oberfläche eingelogt die IP Adresse sowie die VLAN ID in den Settings angepasst hatte, speichert das System ja die Settings und ist ja danach nicht mehr unter der IP erreichbar. Problem nur jetz ist. Dass ich die Nas gar nicht mehr finden kann. Jegliches Discovery sowie find synology als auch der sysologogy assistent laufen ins leere. Auch mit einem Crossover kabel und direkt Verbinden am Lan Port über ein Notebook schaffte keine Abhilfe. Da ich jetzt nicht sicher bin, ob das Nas tatsächlich die IP bzw. das VLAN Tag auch 100 % richtig gespeichert hat suche ich nun ne Möglichkeit über den Grub GNU den man beim Booten auswählen kann in irgendeiner Form auf ne editierbare Config zu kommen, in der ich die IP Adresse einsehen bzw. ändern kann. Das VLAN ist am Switch sowie am Router auch 100 % richtig konfiguriert. Habt Ihr mir hier ne passende Lösung?
