Chapter 7: Troubleshooting Guide 
N299 Won't Turn On 
In the event that the N299 won’t turn on, check to see that the power cable is 
correctly plugged in to the N299. Also check to see if the electrical outlet is 
functioning.  
Resetting NAS IP Address and Admin Password 
If you’ve forgotten the admin password, or if you need to reset the unit’s IP 
address, first make sure that the unit is powered off. With the unit powered off, 
press and hold the reset button. With the reset button held down, power on the 
system by pressing the power button. You will hear the unit beep once when you 
turn it on, do not release the reset button until you hear the unit beep again. 
After that, the N299's WAN IP address will be reset to 192.168.1.100 temporarily. 
Please note that all file services at this time will be stopped. 
 
1.  When you point your browser to 192.168.1.100, you will see the following 
screen. 
 
2.  If you select Reset to Factory Default option, the system will be reset. 
Below are the default system settings: 
Admin password Æ admin 
WAN IP address Æ 192.168.1.100 
WAN IP Gateway Æ 192.168.1.1 
WAN Jumbo Frame Support Æ Off 
LAN IP Æ 192.168.2.254 
LAN Jumbo Frame Support Æ Off 
HTTP Port Æ 80  
HTTPS port Æ 443 
Forgot My Network IP Address 
If you forget your network IP address and have no physical access to the system, 
you can use the setup wizard to retrieve the IP of your N299. 
 
1.  Start the Setup Wizard, and it will automatically detect all Thecus IP 
storage products on your network. 
 
2.  You should be able to find the IP address of the N299 which you have 
forgotten in the Device Discovery screen. 
Can't Access N299 from the LAN 
If you cannot access the N299 from the LAN, make sure that its network cable is 
correctly plugged in. Also, check to see if the N299’s WAN and LAN settings are 
configured correctly.  
Can't Map a Network Drive in Windows XP 
You may have problems mapping a network drive under the following conditions: 
 
1.  The network folder is currently mapped using a different user name and 
password. To connect using a different user name and password, first 
disconnect any existing mappings to this network share.
