Anyone attempted DSM7 install on Topton N5105 NAS Motherboard?

[NoobWingingIt]

Hello,

 

Just picked up the Topton N5105 NAS Motherboard from Ali (Link to Specs on Ali)

Intel Celeron (11th) N5105

16GB RAM

4 x 2.5GPS ethernet ports (Intel i226-V)

 

Having issues trying to install DSM7 wondering if anyone else has tried and had issues with this board.

 

Specifically, TC OS loads but cannot connect to the internet. Blinky Green/Yellow lights on any of the four ethernet ports but cannot resolve any domains and does not show up on my local network.

 

I guess this is related to NIC drivers? Any help or thoughts would be appreciated.

First, replace your old loader to ARC loader, and then set in motherboard bios uart off.

is there a specific reason why uart needs to be disabled?

Hi, if your board same, as a  topton r3 or t-bao r3, or aoostar, skybarium etc white "funnel style" nas with AMD cpu board, try to  set that two line below, and dsm will boot and works good..

 

 

 AMD CBS -> FCH common Option -> Uart Configuration Options disable uart 

AMD CBS-> FCH Common->Sata config options->Sata controller from auto to ENABLED!

I think, uart will be boot first, and arpl or arc stopping.

Check, your bios contains a menu point UART. If yes, disable it.
