Unicode, e.g. Windows properly.
® 95/98/ME, select the language the same as your OS here in order to view the files and directories on the server
3.3.4 View System Settings
You can view all current system settings, e.g. server name, on this page.
3.4 Network Settings
You can configure network settings in this section and enable several powerful applications of TS-201, e.g. Multimedia Station, Download Station, and Web
Server.
3.4.1 TCP/ IP Configuration
You can select one of the following two methods to configure the TCP/IP settings of TS-201.
1. Obtain IP address settings automatically via DHCP
If your network supports DHCP, TS-201 will use DHCP protocol to retrieve the
IP address and related information automatically.
2. Use static IP address
To use fixed IP address for network connection, enter fixed IP address, subnet mask and default gateway.
Primary DNS Server: Enter the IP address of primary DNS server that provides
DNS service for TS-201 in external network.
Secondary DNS Server: Enter the IP address of secondary DNS server that provides DNS service for TS-201 in external network.
Note:
1. Please contact your ISP or network administrator for the IP address of primary and secondary DNS servers. When TS-201 plays the role as a terminal and needs to perform independent connection, e.g. BT download, you must enter at least one DNS server IP for proper URL connection. Otherwise, the function may not work properly.
2. If you select to obtain IP address via DHCP, there is no need to configure the primary and secondary DNS servers. You can enter
“0.0.0.0” in the settings.
Enable DHCP Server
If no DHCP is available in the LAN where TS-201 locates, you can enable this function to enable TS-201 as a DHCP server and allocate dynamic IP address to
DHCP clients in LAN.
You can set the range of IP addresses allocated by DHCP server and the lease time. Lease time refers to time that IP address is leased to the clients by DHCP server. When the time expires, the client has to acquire an IP address again.
For example, to establish a DLNA network, and share the multimedia files on TS-
201 to DLNA DMP via UPnP while there is no NAT gateway that supports DHCP server, you can enable DHCP server of TS-201. TS-201 will allocate dynamic IP address to DMP or other clients automatically and set up a local network.
Note: If there is an existing DHCP server in your LAN, do not enable this function. Otherwise, there will be IP address allocation and network access errors.
Jumbo Frame Settings (MTU)
"Jumbo Frames" refer to Ethernet frames that are larger than 1500 bytes. It is designed to enhance Ethernet networking throughput and reduce the CPU utilization of large file transfers by enabling more efficient larger payloads per packet.
Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) refers to the size (in bytes) of the largest packet that a given layer of a communications protocol can transmit.
TS-201 uses standard Ethernet frames: 1500 bytes by default. If your network appliances support Jumbo Frame setting, select the appropriate MTU value for your network environment. TS-201 supports 4074 and 7418 bytes for MTU.
Note: Jumbo Frame setting is valid in Gigabit network environment only. Besides, all network appliances connected must enable Jumbo
Frame and use the same MTU value.
3.4.2 Microsoft Networking
Enable file service for Microsoft networking: If you are using Microsoft ®
Windows ® OS, enable this service to access the files on network share folders.
Assign a workgroup name.
9 Standalone Server
Use local users for user authentication.
9 WINS server
If the local network has a WINS server installed, specify the IP address. TS-
201 will automatically register its name and IP address with WINS service. If you have a WINS server in your network and want to use this server, enter the WINS server IP.
9 Domain Master
There is a unique Domain Master Browser for collecting and recording resources and services available for each PC in the network or workgroup of
Windows. When you find the waiting time for accessing Network
Neighborhood too long, it may be caused by failure of an existing master browser, or there is no master browser in the network.
If there is no master browser in your network, you can check the box Domain
Master in this section to configure TS-201 as the master browser to enhance the speed of accessing information on Network Neighborhood.
3.4.3 Apple Network
To use TS-201 on Apple Mac operating system, enable AppleTalk network support.
If your AppleTalk network uses extended networks, and is assigned with multiple zones, assign a zone name to TS-201. If you do not want to assign a network zone, enter an asterisk (*) to use the default setting. This setting is disabled
by default.
3.4.4 Web File Manager
To access files on TS-201 via web browser, enable Web File Manager. If TS-201 is connected to the Internet and uses a valid IP address, you can access files on the server by web browser from anywhere. For more information, please refer to
TS-201 supports SSL secure login. You can select SSL login on TS-201 administration page and login Web File Manager via https; or enter https://TS-
201 IP:443/Qfilemanager/ in the browser.
3.4.5 FTP Service
When you enable FTP service, you can define the port number for the service and maximum number of users connected to the FTP at the same time.
Select to enable or disable Unicode Support. The default setting is No. Since most FTP clients do not support Unicode currently, it is recommended that you disable Unicode support here and select the language the same as your OS in
“System Settings—Encoding Setting” page so that the folders and files on FTP can
be properly shown (please refer to Chapter 3.3.3). If your FTP client supports
Unicode, make sure you have enabled Unicode support for both your client and
TS-201.
You can enable anonymous login to allow users to access the FTP server of TS-
201 anonymously. The users can access the folders and files which are opened for public access. If this option is disabled, users must enter an authorized user name and password to access the server.
3.4.6 Multimedia Station
To share multimedia files like photos, music or video files on the network, please enable Multimedia Station. For further information of Multimedia Station, iTunes
service and UPnP Media Server, please refer to Chapter 5.
3.4.7 Download Station
TS-201 supports BT, HTTP and FTP download independent of PC/notebook. To use download function of TS-201, please enable Download Station. For further
information, please refer to Chapter 6.
Warning: Please be warned against illegal downloading of copyrighted materials. The Download Station functionality is provided for downloading authorized files only. Downloading or distribution of unauthorized materials may result in severe civil and criminal penalty.

3.4.8 Web Server
You can publish your own server by enabling Web Server function of TS-201.
Enter the port number for web server service, the default number is 80. For
further information, please refer to Chapter 7.
3.4.9 DDNS Service
To set up a server on the Internet and enable users to access it easily, a fixed and easy-to-remember host name is often required. However, if ISP provides only dynamic IP address, the IP address of the server will change from time to time and is difficult to recall. You can enable DDNS service to solve the problem.
After enabling DDNS service of TS-201, whenever TS-201 restarts or the IP address is changed, TS-201 will notify DDNS provider immediately to record the new IP address. When the user tries to connect TS-201 via the host name, DDNS will transfer the recorded IP address to the user.
Enable and configure DDNS of TS-201:
Before using DDNS service, please register a host name from the DDNS provider*.
TS-201 supports the 5 DDNS providers: members.dyndns.org, update.ods.org, members.dhs.org, www.dyns.cx, www.3322.org.
Enable Dynamic DNS Service, and select DDNS server. Then enter the user name, password, and hostname.
* For the information of DDNS service registration, please refer to the website of the DDNS providers.
Note: The DDNS function of TS-201 is not applicable when TS-201 is located behind an NAT router. Since the IP address sent from TS-201 to
DDNS provider is virtual, which cannot be found on the Internet, the user will not be able to access TS-201. Therefore, when TS-201 is located behind an NAT, it is recommended to use an NAT router with DDNS function to perform DDNS function.
3.4.10 View Network Settings
You can view current network settings and status of TS-201 in this section.
3.5 Device Configuration
You can configure SATA disk, USB disk and USB printer settings in this section.
3.5.1 SATA Disk
This page shows the model, size and current status of the disk(s) installed on TS-
201. You can format and check disks, and scan bad blocks on the disks. When the SATA disks are formatted, TS-201 will create the following default share folders:
9 Public: Network share for file sharing
9 Qdownload: Network share for Download Station
9 Qmultimedia: Network share for Multimedia Station
9 Qusb: Network share for data copy function via USB ports
9 Qweb: Network share for Web Server
You can create the following disk volumes:
• Single Disk Volume
Each disk will be used as a standalone disk. However, if a disk is damaged, all data will be lost.
• RAID 1 Mirroring Disk Volume
RAID 1 (mirroring disk) protects your data by automatically backing up the contents of one drive onto the second drive of a mirrored pair. This protects your data if one of the drives fails. Unfortunately, the storing capacity is equal to a single drive, as the second drive is used to automatically back up the first.
Mirroring Disk is suitable for personal or corporate use to store important data.
• RAID 0 Striping Disk Volume
RAID 0 (striping disk) combines 2 or more drives into one larger disk. It offers the fastest disk access but it does not have any protection of your data if the striped array fails. The disk capacity equals the number of drives in the array times the size of the smallest drive. Striping disk is usually used to maximize your disk capacity or for fast disk access but not for storing important data.
• Linear Disk Volume
You can combine two or more disks into one larger disk. During file saving, the file will be saved on physical disks sequentially but does not have a disk failure file protection function. The overall capacity of linear disk is the sum of all disks. Linear disk is generally used for storing large data and is not appropriate to use for file protection of sensitive data.
3.5.2 USB Disk
TS-201 supports USB disks and thumb drives for extended storage. Connect the
USB device to the USB port of TS-201, when the device is successfully detected, the details will be shown on this page.

Dump Diagnostic Information
To view the diagnostic details of a download task, select a task on the list and click [Dump Diagnostic Information].
The common reasons for slow BT download rate or download error are as follow:
1. The torrent file has expired, the peers have stopped sharing this file, or there is error in the file.
2. TS-201 has configured to use fixed IP but DNS server is not configured, or
DNS server fails.
3. Set the maximum number of simultaneous downloads as 3-5 for the best download rate.
4. TS-201 is located behind NAT router. The port settings have led to slow BT download rate or no response. You may try the following means to solve the problem: a. Open the BitTorrent port range on NAT router manually. Forward these ports to the LAN IP of TS-201. b. The new TS-201 firmware supports UPnP NAT port forwarding. If your NAT router supports UPnP, enable this function on the NAT. Then enable UPnP
NAT port forwarding of TS-201. The BT download rate should be enhanced.

GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
Version 2, June 1991
Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301, USA
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This General Public License applies to most of the Free Software Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by the GNU Lesser General Public License instead.) You can apply it to your programs, too.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Our
General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the software.
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free software. If the
software is modified by someone else and passed on, we want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original authors' reputations.
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow.
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND
MODIFICATION
0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below, refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program" means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the
Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this
License; they are outside its scope. The act of running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Program (independent of having been made by running the Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with the Program.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute such modifications
or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this
License.
c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, you must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this License.
(Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, does not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Program.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the
Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section
2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you received the program in objects code or executable form with such an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation of the executable.
However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable.
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source code from the same place counts as distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it.
However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept
this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works based on it.
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to this License.
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this
License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system, which is implemented by public license practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of this License.
8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program are restricted in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the Program under this License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the
General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this.
Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
NO WARRANTY
11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO
WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS
AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED
TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND
PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE
DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR
CORRECTION.
12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN
WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY
MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE
LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL,
INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR
INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU
OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY
OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN
ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
