2. Installing NasDisk
1) Things to know before installation
Please confirm the following particulars before installing NasDisk
Confirm the Internet conmnection method you have
① ADSL connection
② Cable connection
③ Static IP with Local Area Network connection
④ Dynamic IP with Local Area Network connection(DHCP).
①If you are connected through ADSL, you should be using external ADSL modem for installing
NasDisk.(Internal or USB modem is not compatible with NasDisk. You should replace the internal
modem with external one)
②If you are connected using CABLE modem, please confirm the Mac Address value in your
NIC(Network Interface Card). And some Internet service providers tend to limit the Mac Address.
③If your network environment is LAN that uses static IP assignment, please memorize the network
configuration value and refer to the FAQ section on the backside of this manual for setting the IP-
related values automatically assigned.
④ If your LAN environment is based on DHCP(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), there are no
extra prepration for you.
And in case that you are not sure what sort of Internet connection you have or that you have different
Internet connection service from what is explained above, please consult the service provider to
confirm the detail.

NasDisk installation diagram for ADSL and CABLE modem user
The illustration is the example of installing NasDisk when you’re using ADSL or CABLE modem. Before
installing NasDisk, you can see that ADSL or CABLE modem is directly connected to the PC, but if you
want to install NasDisk, it must lie between PC and ADSL or CABLE modem.
This connection method is identical to that of IP router through ADSL and CABLE modem. In case that
a user is using IP router for sharing the Internet connection, you can connect the UTP cable to the
LAN slot in IP router and configure the router software for setting Virtual Server or Port Forward.
(Set 80 for Web File Manager console, 21 for FTP Server function and 25 for Mail Server)
Although you are connected to the Internet through ADSL or CABLE modem, internal modem cannot
be used together with NasDisk. That is, those xDSL modems in the form of PCI card or USB and
Serial-based modem cannot be connected to NasDisk
In this case, you should consult your service provider to change the internal modem with external
one for installing NasDisk.

The figure above illustrates an example of connecting NasDisk to existing network in enterprise or
governmental ofiice in which if any extra IP is currently available, you don’t have to use sharing router
for connecting NasDisk. Instead, you can simply install Nasdisk onto the extra IP. If there is no more
IP available, your PC should be connected through NasDisk.
That is all the installation procedure of NasDisk for the case where there exists LAN configuration.
