Ethernet repair ideas for an old DS213j?
The 1GB ethernet port quit working after a close lightning strike. The unit still operates using the ethernet port at the 100 Mbps rate, though. Everything else in the DS213j seems fine, other than that ethernet port. Any ideas on what might have died and, more importantly, could I find and fix whatever stopped working? Trying to use the NAS at 10% of its previous connection speed is an exercise in frustration! Thanks.

Hi @ted6641,
Post some close up images of the board where the Ethernet port is situated.
Seems as though the controller for the port is OK as it is working, but perhaps other components around it and connected with it, may have been affected by the power surge causing the controller not to respond to the higher data rate.
Here's how to do this on ifixit Adding images to an existing question
