The Network Space 2 doesn’t 
appear on the network.
By default the LaCie Network Space 2 is configured to retrieve its IP address from a DHCP server. If your 
network is managed by a DHCP server and you cannot access your LaCie Network Space 2, try checking 
your DHCP server’s log. To get the IP address, run LaCie Network Assistant, which is located on the LaCie 
Storage Utilities CD-ROM. If no DHCP server detected, the product will run APIPA to assign itself an IP 
address. To change this IP address, use LaCie Network Assistant.
Is the IP address properly set?
For more information, please see section
Does your network require devices to 
be assigned a static IP address?
To assign a static IP address, see section
LaCie Network Assistant is not 
working as described in this 
manual.
Are you using an obsolete version of La-
Cie Network Assistant?

rectly.

I’ve noticed a delay in access-
ing the shares.

taneously?

fers. 
I cannot see the media files 
stored in the LaCie Network 
Space 2 on my UPnP AV me-
dia player or adapter. 
Are the media files stored on a public 
share?
UPnP AV devices will only discover media files stored on public 
shares. Files stored in non-public shares are not accessible to 
UPnP devices.
