hi peter.

these devices are network servers. you can use them to set up CCTV monitoring systems, print servers to share printers across your network, as a virtual private network server, as network storage, or extend the system as a switchboard function for a business. more is online at:

    Hi John.

    Synology's web interface is navigable with jaws with training.
    i've set up synology stations for people in the past, and they can
    be made to work. I'm totally blind for reference. Its a case of
    memorising and perhaps labeling the buttons using your prefered
    screen reader. Please drop me a note off list with the kind of
    thing you're trying to do, i may be able to suggest alternatives
    or even let you try out the interface. I would rather not publish
    log info to the list for obvious reasons if i can get you access
    to an interface, so direct contact would be preferable.

    all the best,

    Mo.

    £500, it is a bit expensive to buy on spec, in case it is not
    configurable with jaws or window-eyes due to the graphics
    overlay.  In this respect we can't try before we buy!  Has anyone
    tried synology's web interface?  or any ideas on how to evade
    this vicious circle?
