Sparky_Robot Posted July 16, 2016 #1 Posted July 16, 2016 Hi everyone. 1st thank you for the hard work on xpenology project. I have installed and updated 5.2 on an old tower I had to learn about a cheaper way of having a synology server. It is working great i have hooked a network camera up to it too. My first question is why do i need to create a new mac ID or serial number I am still not clear on it? The other question is about access from the wan. I don't need to have access to it from the web. I am trying to see where to go to make sure the access from the web is disabled, could some one please advise. I am having a lot of fun learning Thank you Sparky_Robot

Sparky_Robot Posted July 17, 2016 Author #3 Posted July 17, 2016 1. Ok I guess I don't really need them for the basic setup I am using so far. 2. Again basic setup so not needed Abced Thank you for your help I am appreciate it.
abced Posted July 17, 2016 #4 Posted July 17, 2016 It takes you one minute to get real serials, so do it now because once you will setup everything you will probably not touch that box for a while.
