Hi,

Unfortunately your NAS’s IP has changed. The Old nas IP 192.168.1.50 and the new one as you’ve stated is 192.168.86.61. You’ve got a few choices here, If you want to do it external from the vero4k.

Set the nested wifi to 192.168.1.1 (or 192.168.1.0 network and set DHCP address pool to start at 192.168.1.51:

Then Give the nas a static ip address of 192.168.1.50:

Control Panel, network, network interface, edit lan connection. Use manual configuration radio button.

Vero4k side has a couple of options, both would need command line access:

The easiest would be resetting kodi and setting everything back up again using the nas’s new ip address, the reset is done as follows:

systemctl stop mediacenter
mv ~/.kodi ~/kodi.bak
systemctl start mediacenter

The other option is using a path substitute using a text editor such as vi or nano, create ~/.kodi/userdata/advancedsettings.xml containing:

<advancedsettings>
	<pathsubstitution>
		<substitute>
			<from>nfs://192.168.1.50/</from>
			<to>nfs://192.168.86.61/</to>
		</substitute>
	</pathsubstitution>
</advancedsettings>

Thanks Tom.
