Here are my answers
Are you connected on your LAN? Yes
if you are, You can use the NAS IP Address by entering http://NAS-IPADDRESS on your browser. I did this. This gets me to a static Netgear Readynas page with the firmware version 6.9.1. (see attached file) But I cannot get to any other ADMIN pages.
You can also go to the Discover tab on your ReadyCloud portal and click on Manage button on the corresponding ReadyNAS system. I did this. Same result as above.
Installing RAIDar is also one way of discovering and accessing your NAS on your LAN. I ca see my NAS on the LAN and can access data on the NAS. Just cannot get toth admin page.
Clearing cache on your Web browser will also help if you are having issues loading the Admin page. I did this on my Chrome browser. It did not make any fdifference.
If you want to remotely access the ReadyNAS Admin page you will have to install the ReadyCloud Desktop app for Windows or Mac to access the Admin page remotely. I can do this as well from my desktop via my wifi network.

I cannot get past the user / password request. I am using the same user and password that I use for readycloud but tthey are not working. Is that correct or do i need to create new ones for Raidar? I also tried admin an password but they do not work either

You normally use "admin" for the username, and the NAS admin password. The default admin password is password but normally you'd have changed it.
If you can't recall it, you'd need to do an OS reinstall from the boot menu (which would reset it to the default).
