Cant login to previously working ReadyCloud

Good day.

I have been using my ReadyNAS 214 for about 2 years now and for some reason, its saying my password is wrong. I have not changed my password and I have not gotten any notification that my password was changed, it simply stopped working.


I have all my files in there. How do I get back in? I already tried the "Forgot Password" link, I reset the password and that did not work.

    Your post title says this is happening with ReadyCloud. Does it also happen if you directly log into the web ui?

     

    https://nas-ip-address/admin - using the real IP address of the NAS of course (and logging in as admin)

      Thank you for that link, it worked perfectly. I logged in using the link you provided and as soon I logged in, my Cloud prompted me to update my firmware. I pushed the update and after it rebooted, I was able to login like normal again


      Thank you!! !  ! !
