QNAP in different subnets

Post by otorenik »

HI, I have an issue how to find QNAP NAS with QFINDER which is it in different subnet ???

PC on 192.168.2.x
QNAP on 192.168.3.x

Router is with no firewall !

I can PING it, but qfinder is not finding it????

Thank you

Move the computer to the same subnet and try again (Qfinder works afaik via broadcast, that does not traverse subnets)

Router Firewall would not come into play, or why would you think that ? (Subnets via VPN?)

Thank you for answer,
I would like to have NAS on different subnet like PCs......
If I am connecting to the same subnet then it works without issues....
So that means -NO solution to combine ????
