Is Readycloud Broken?
I'm trying to login to my Readycloud account from a laptop using the app, but I keep getting :-
"Sorry we didn't recognise either your Username or Password. Please try to sign in again or create a new account"
I can't login via the web page either!!!!
I have not changed anything on my account, so it gives the impression that my details have been wiped!
Strangely, it appears that the Readycloud Android App is still recognising my login and allowing me access to my NAS.
I am confused!
Confirmed: There was a short period on October 9th where there was an issue with the login server.

Glad it's not me and 'finger trouble' ;-)
As you say, any help would be great.

Mine is now working again. Is yours?

If I try 'Forgot Account' link and enter my UserID, it comes back:-
"4280242530 No user found with such ID"
If I try to create a new account, it comes back with :-
"Create new account error
; nested exception is:
java.net. UnknownHostException:
peernetwork.netgear.com"

Nothing fancy, just suddenly I was able to login remotely to the NAS with the same username and password as I had been trying all afternoon.
From here it looked like the netgear server was the system that had an issue and it took a while to fix- MarcusFNETGEAR Employee

Don't you mean October 9th? How about letting us customers know when such faults occur?

- ChrisF99AspirantGreat.
Nice of netgear to let us know.
I'm sending mine back to Amazon and going back to Sync.com. - ChrisF99AspirantGlad you aim to do better. In the meantime I lost hours trying to sort it out instead if earning the money I use to buy netgear products.
The lesson I learned is not to buy netgear. Better in future or not.
