April 20, 20215 yr I had a Microsoft tech mess up settings in my laptop and it lost all connectivity. He told me to contact my isp and all they could do was reset the network. I cannot find how to get into my Nas without the ip. The network name comes up with nothing. The only thing that shows up in my router is the Motherboard, no Nas Ip. Im still on the trial. I just started the UnRaid like two days ago. I searched the forums but I just cant find a solid answer. I also cant get it to connect to a monitor at all to try and figure out the new IP. I am so lost. Please help! I dont think there is anything wrong with the device but just in case someone spots something... Thank you! Asteel!

April 20, 20215 yr Author Yes I was able to get it to post to my monitor with no problem for the UnRaid download. It did take a few minutes the first time, but its been on for about 45 mins now. And the monitor just says no signal. Also confusing is that my server has 3 gigabit ports. The only connection I am seeing in my router is the motherboard login with Asus and I never even made an account for that. Asteel
April 20, 20215 yr Author Is doing the system logs what I should do? Remove the flashdrive and look at the files? Even under the routers assigned ip section there is nothing though. Also i tried to click the capture your syslog hyperlink for details and it it said removed.

April 20, 20215 yr Author I tried to follow this and it didn't work at all... the system just wont come on.... I mean its on but I can't access it at all.
April 20, 20215 yr Is it showing up in your router at all? Your router should give you a clue to what devices are connected and their Ip addresses. Don't worry we are not going to leave you High and Dry. You should really make sure you can hook up a monitor at all times. I know headless is the way to go, but as a just in case.
April 20, 20215 yr Author So sorry was on the phone thank you for answering. So the mobo has 3 ethernet. I plugged them all in but all I see is the Asus motherboard when I try to find it in my router gui. I followed that guide above and turned off the system, loaded it on my main pc and deleted sys network and network. Either way I can't see anything on my monitor at all or access the gui by server name or ip. It is very confounding. Thank you! Asteel
April 20, 20215 yr Author I am sorry if I am being impatient. This was like so exciting building this and getting it working. Im still looking for an answer but have not located one yet.
April 20, 20215 yr Author I dont want to have to do the parity on my drive and redownload all the dockers and apps, but I can just redo the key if that's the only choice. Asteel

You must be able to show and select the USB stick as the boot device.
April 20, 20215 yr Author It Posted just fine this first time. It took a minute as a first time boot of the system but I could post perfectly. The motherboard shows as online and good to go on my router web gui. It's just the nas itself doesn't. Asteel
April 21, 20215 yr Author I have the usb directly into the mobo and it shows up. Do you think I have to access the mobo gui to get the usb to work? I didn't have to last time.
April 21, 20215 yr Community Expert If it won't boot from the flash drive try preparing the flash drive again. Do you have a backup of flash? The config folder from your flash backup is all you need to get going again with your configuration on a new install.
April 21, 20215 yr Author So like make a copy of the config file to my desktop then redo the flash drive and then plop the config back in?

April 21, 20215 yr Author I saw the suggestion was made by you... i believe... to someone a while back in a post. I could just be nuts.
