XPEH Posted November 17, 2013 Share #176 Posted November 17, 2013 Can I change the mac address and S/N to any MAC address and S/N that I want? or I need to find a valid MAC addresses and S/N for Synology? For WOL to work properly, MAC address should match you real NIC's MAC address. It is unique for each network adapter. SN you can make anything you want with the same lenght (?). For both, MAC and SN you will need to recalculate the checksum and put it right after the number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I edited the vendor file and used the excel to calculate the pair 7 (that I assume its the check sum) the excel create a new serial as well base on the MAC address and a check sum pair for the serial. Now when I boot from the USB disk I see on the screen the 4 MAC addresses that I modified and the serial. BUT I get in the "custom serial: Empty or Invalid checksum", is there any other check sum that I need to do? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sbh Posted November 23, 2013 Share #179 Posted November 23, 2013 Hi, I installed this version and the xpenology work great. I'm using Gigabyte mother board, this boards have a problem (bug) in the bios that it can't boot from usb drive with linux MBR. but USB with DOS/WINDOWS MBR no problem, im not sure if its all linux types. this issue is only with USB. Do you know if I can install on the data hard drive bool loader to point to my usb so it will boot automatically? (I tried that and its destroy the volume) I tried to use 2 usb drives one with dos/windows MBR that load and it suppose to start the second but I can't make it work. any suggestion or help will be greatly appreciated about how to start the xpenology. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpopfans1 Posted January 5, 2014 Share #180 Posted January 5, 2014 For trying out HA ...... I tried on 3202, the passive DSM is giving out errors .... anyone successful in HA ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iaflyer Posted January 10, 2014 Share #181 Posted January 10, 2014 I was using 4.1 of the DSM software and though, "oh, lets upgrade to 4.2, that will be fun..." not realizing that the driver for my network (Realtek 8169) had been removed. I saw in the 4.3 thread there was some talk about it being added, but I haven't seen it here. Has anyone suggest or asked about adding Realtek 8169 support to the the 3202 build? I'm kinda SOL because I can't downgrade (I've tried the editing version, I can't login via root, it won't take the password for some reason) but the 4.2 version doesn't have driver support. I'm open to suggestions to solve this too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
