Cannot access https://readyshare.netgear.com to register the hard drive attached to my router.

At this point, you may access your files remotely using FTP access.

When I log into my router, I have a Readyshare tab. In the section, I have three options:
| Basic |
| ReadySHARE Cloud (Allows you to access ReadySHARE Storage from anywhere) |
| ReadySHARE Printer |
WHen I choose ReadySHARE Cloud, I am prompted with this:
The ReadySHARE Cloud feature gives you remote access over the Internet to a USB storage device that is connected to your router's USB port. How to Set Up ReadySHARE Cloud Step 1: You need a ReadySHARE Cloud account. If you do not have one,click here to get one. Step 2: On this page, enter your ReadySHARE Cloud user name and password to register your router and the USB device that is connected to it with your account. Step 3: Log back into http://readyshare.netgear.com/ with your account. You should see the USB device that is connected to your router. Step 4: The first time, you are asked to download a Windows client, which is used to make a secure connection from your PC to the router's USB device. Log into this client and you can access the USB device from anywhere. Note: Without this client, you can browse your USB device contents but you cannot open files or make changes to them
When I click on the URL: http://readyshare.netgear.com/ , it does not load for me (resolve).
I have a ReadyCloud account and at the bottom of the router page, I can enter my user name and password, but when I click on "register" it does nothing.
I just want to access my connected drive remotely. |
