Fing Box and aggregated links

in Fing App
I have a NAS box on my home network that uses two NICs, which are aggregated in a load balancing manner with the switch they are connected to. However, lately the Fing sees these as two different devices using the same IP. It used to see them as the same device if I remember right. Is there a way that I can tell Fing that these two NICs are aggregated?

    Hi @RainCaster, I miss Doonesberry ... nice avatar!

    The short and simple answer is 'no'.  You can label them both as being part of the NAS, but not listed as aggregated.  Is your NAS a Synology device by chance?

    My NAS is an Asustor.

    I can't believe that I missed Bloom County for Doonesbury ... still, Steve in the wheelchair ... classic stuff.

    Thanks for the model information, I'll take a look into it and see what I can find out about the load balancing with it.
