Q: why does the USB LED still lighten after I removed USB device? A: You just need to restart NSD-100 since USB device was removed irregularly. Please follow chapter 5 to remove your SUB device. 3. Q: Why can t my printer print more than two pages of document? A: Please confirm if the printer has installed original factory driver and HD is well connected. (The capacity for HDD must be over 10GB and formated via NSD-100 because the document was temporarily saved in HDD. 4. Q: Why can t I open page of Web administration with IE?

63 7. Q: How do I remote NSD-100 and set BT from WAN? A: Most ISP will provide one or more dynamic public IP for Internet connection if your NSD-100 works in static IP framework. Open your web browser with this static IP address to access NSD-100. If NSD-100 works with dynamic IP, you may use an NAT router that supports DDNS function with NSD-100 and register an easy-to-remember address from DDNS provider to connect to NSD-100 on the Internet, e.g. mynsd-100.dyndns.org. NOTE: 1. If your NSD-100 is located behind the NAT router, you need to open DMZ function in NAT router. (Please refer to chapter 6-4 for DMZ setting) 2. If you are using your NSD-100 without being behind an NAT router, you can also configure to use the DDNS function on NAT router. 8. Q: How do I use NSD-100 s FTP function? A: If your NSD-100 works in static IP, you may enter the static IP Address, user name and password in FTP software for connecting NSD-100 as FTP server; If your NSD-100 works in dynamic IP, you need to register an address from DDNS provider to identify NSD-100 on the Internet and then enter the address registering of DDNS provider, user name and password in FTP software for connecting NSD-100 as FTP server. 9. Q: Why do I use NSD-100 s BT-Download and the network speed slow down? 63

64 A: Please check whether max. upload rate of BitTorren setting (refer section 7-2-8) is 0 (No limit). If so, please change the rate. 10. Q: Why does the printer work late when I click Print? A: Printer s buffer and network s speed will affect printing response. 11. Q: Why can t I add new files when I connect with a NTFS hard disk drive? A: USB HDD with NTFS format will be Read-only when it connects to NSD Q: Why do I browse folder via ftp://user:password@ipaddress will display the folder name in disorder? A: This is language-decoding problem of web browser. It is recommended to use professional FTP software, like CoreFTP to set both languages to Union Code for NSD-100 and FTP software. 13. Q: If the network drive disappears each time while reboot the computer, you may try the following setting to keep the connection of network drive after rebooting. A: 1. Check NSD-100 setting whether correct or not. 64

65 2. Click My Computer Tool Map Network Drive 65

66 After setting the drive and folder, please check the option Reconnect at logon. 14. Q: Why does BT download rate slow down or download error? A: Some users stopped sharing file lead to torrent decrease or error. The error may slow down BT download rate or download error. If your NSD-100 is located behind route, you may refer to 6-4 DMZ setting in details, and the BT download rate should be enhanced. 66
