Thanks in advance.

Hi Al,
Connect your laptop to the new router, open the router's page in your web browser, in this case
http://192.168.0.1
enter the name and password, usually admin and password, but can vary
then go to the lan settings, there you should have a dhcp section.
it would show 192.168.0.
change the third octet to 1
thats 192.168.1.
save, it should reboot.
if you want to go back to the router settings, you'll have to then type in the new IP in your browser
http://192.168.1.1 and you'll have access.
else you're done, and you should be able to get access to the 192.168.1.x devices. check the ip address for your laptop, it should have a 192.168.1.x address, if it does, you should be able to ping your nas at 192.168.1.111
