I installed the app and has connected the NAS. Got at first data in retern. But after 10 minutes the app was swithched off by Synology. updated Data is not updated to actual numbers.
Same issues over here. In Homey the app shows that my Synology is turned off and (within 2 minutes) is turned on. In reality the Synology isn’t down. I couldn’t find a solution myself. Any idea what could be wrong?
@Walter_vande_kerkhof Probably a IP issue. Can you try to give your NAS a fixed ip adress or use a alias.
Alias you can do like so:
Control Panel > Network > DSM settings > Domain
Then if you browse to synology.local you get your DSM.
In Homey change the IP you filled in to synology.local. That will probably resolve things.
What is happening:
When your NAS turns off another device is taking that IP. Then when it’s started again it cannot get the same IP and shows as offline.
I already had a fixed IP for my synology NAS so that’s not the issue. Does an alias add something new or is it just an alternative for a Fixed IP address. In other words, is it worth trying to use an alias even if the IP address was fixed in the first place?
