SilverStone DC01 [7/43] Local or remote login via web browser

Getting Started

2.1.3 Local or remote login via web browser

Note

• To make it easier to remember the name of your home server, login using the web interface and go to the

Registration menu. There you can register the device under a new name.

• Login via web portal works no matter where you are, as long as you have a web browser and an internet

connection. No additional set up for your network switch or router is required.

2.1.4 Local login using the i-sharing finder (internet access is not required)

The i-sharing finder tool can be used to locate and access the network drive on your local network.

1. Make sure that the network drive is connected to the same local network as your computer and the power

is turned on.

2. Wait at least 15 seconds after turning on the device and then start the i-sharing finder. It will automatically

search for the device but if it does not find it at first, click Rescan to start the search again and make sure

the program is not being blocked by the firewall.

3. Once the device has been located, select it from the list and double-click on it to open the login page in

your web browser. By default, the user name and password is admin. For security reasons, we strongly

recommend changing the password after the first login.

1. Open your web browser (e.g. IE, Firefox, Safari).

2. Go to http://www.myakitio.com.

3. Your default home server name is the MAC address of your network drive. You can find this number

on a sticker either on the retail packaging or the device itself.

4. Select your preferred language, enter the name of your home server and click Enter.

5. Login to your account. The default user name and password for the administrator is admin.

For security reasons, we strongly recommend changing the password after the first login.

• The network drive can be accessed via web browser from the local network or remotely.
