Tips for Storing Data on the NAS Device
• Change the Windows user name and password to match the user name and
password assigned by the
NAS
Device. This allows just one log in sequence.
• Map multiple
NAS
folders on the computer, as described above.
• Backup data by copying files from the computer to the
NAS
Device.
• If Windows Me, 2000, or
XP
is running on the computer, a backup program
is available. Use this backup program to automate the process of backing
up data to the Device. Read the instructions and help file supplied with this
program for details.
Accessing the NAS Device from the Web

Device from computer running an operating system other than Windows. To do this:
1. Start the Web browser.

(in the “System” screen) from the default port (80), specify the
correct port number when connecting. For example, if the cur-
rent port is 8080, enter:
http://192.168.0.100:8080
