Connecting to NAS by Web Browser
To connect to the NAS by a web browser, follow these steps:
1. Enter http://NAS IP:8080 in the web browser. Or if using QNAP Qfinder, simply double click on
the NAS to open the login page.
Note:
The default NAS IP is 169.254.100.100:8080. If the NAS has been configured to
use DHCP, you can use QNAP Qfinder to check the IP address of the NAS. Make sure the
NAS and the computer that runs QNAP Qfinder are connected to the same subnet. If the
NAS cannot be found, connect the NAS to the computer directly and run QNAP Qfinder
again.
2. Enter the administrator's login id and password. Enable "Secure login" (Secure Sockets Layer login)
to allow a secure connection to the NAS. If a user without administration rights logs into the NAS,
the user can only change the login password (the default login ID and password of the NAS are
both "admin".)
Note:
If the NAS is behind a NAT gateway, to connect to the NAS by secure login on the
Internet, port 443 must be opened on the NAT router and forwarded to the LAN IP of the
NAS.
3. The NAS Desktop will be displayed.
