Cos it seems from their email, I have to pay them first for the return from Taiwan to SG, and I pay for the shipping from sg to Taiwan. Is this correct?

Why do you need an internal DHCP server?

I used to use this feature too. The DHCP server in my ONT will give out IP addresses already in use (lease not yet expired) upon restart, leading to IP conflicts on my network. So I turned off this in the ONT and used the one in my NAS instead.

The firmware of my ONT got upgraded sometime back and now the DHCP server cannot be disabled. So I LL have to use it and am no longer using the one in my NAS.

Wow you all must have a lot of devices! My standard router does the routing and it seems to do the job fine.

Same here. The power supply for my 916+ spoiled today. Ordered a replacement power supply to see if it will work.
If not I hope I can migrate the disks to a new nas.

Btw, if your nas is spoilt and you don’t want to get a new Synology, how are you going to retrieve your data?
