I think I am getting the same issue as you after I upgraded to the latest software 6.10.5 yesterday. On some browser as soon as I type in the IP address to my NAS I get a prompt to reset password. On another browser (Internet Explorer) I managed to login to my admin page but as soon as it loads I get this Connecting to Readynas Admin Page.... and a prompt to re-enter my username and password and then I get the reset password page.
Sorry I do not have the solution, I have been searching and found your issue and I thought they might be related or the same issue.

So far I have tried and OS reinstall and at least that let's me log in and do chagnes on my admin page

So with an OS reinstall resetting the admin password to: `password`, the admin page works. Once I changed the admin password to the one I usually use the problem has returned. So this is definitely and issue with the admin password.

Yep, I am getting the same thing. Now I cant get into manage my ReadyNAS at all. So it sounds like the OS re-install solved it? That doesn't mess with the data on the drives right?

No the OS reinstall does not mess with your data so you can put your mind at rest. Once I did the OS reinstall and I was able to access the interface normally, via username: admin and password: password. Once you are in download the 6.10.4 firmware from here https://kb.netgear.com/000062588/ReadyNAS-OS-6-Software-Version-6-10-4 and install that. Again no data is affected here.
