QNAP TS-209 Pro II NAS

After using the TS-509 Pro, I had a good understanding of how the setup worked. Usually any changes I wanted to make I would do so through the web interface. What I didn’t know was that the web interface first has to be set up and drives configured before access is granted.

The initial setup is done through QNAP Finder, software provided to you on the CD.

After a quick installation, QNAP Finder will find your NAS and ask if you want to use the Quick Setup Wizard.

If this is your first time with the NAS, the answer you want to say is yes and the default login and password is “admin”.

The QNAP Finder will now start the configuration process and ask you a series of questions: server name, desired password, date and time, filename encoding, network information, hard drive initialization and firmware updates.

Once the software configuration is complete, the TS-209 Pro II will reset itself and ask you if you’d like to map any network drives.

If you’ve mapped the network drives and all you plan on doing is using the TS-209 Pro II as a networked hard drive, you’re done and can go about your business. However, if you want to utilize all of the features that come with the TS-209 Pro II, you need to log into the web administration page.
