You should be able to plug a network cable into the NAS and the other end into your Router (or a switch connected to the router).
You probably want to go into your router and assign the NAS a fixed IP address on your local network once it's turned on.
From your computer, install the latest version of QFinderPro https://www.qnap.com/en-uk/utilities/essentials
Once that's done, you should be able to connect to it.
Follow any (or all) of the guides below and get the most out of your system
