RN10200 Won't Discover & Serial Number Not Found When Searched

Worth a try: Check your router DHCP table/attached devices for an indication that the ReadyNAS has acquired a network config - now you have an IP to point a browser to.
With a ReadyNAS (OS 6 ff.) not booting properly - e.g. because of previously used disks for other purposes, not partitioned and formatted for ReadyNAS usage - the cloud discovery can't work.
All nicely documented on the ReadyNAS Series 100 Desktop Installation Guide and the ReadyNAS OS 6 Desktop Storage Systems Hardware Manual p.165 ff.Alternate approach is using RAIDar to discover the ReadyNAS on the LAN - also in the docs above.

You've exceeded my ReadyNAS expertise, but I'd still suggest a
settings reset before trying to deal with a used device. "No Devices
Discovered" could mean simply that the gizmo has a network configuration
incompatible with yours.

Can we assume that the Ethernet port-status LED indicators on your
(unspecified) "the wireless router" and the gizmo show a good physical
link?
