Confirmed: There was a short period on October 9th where there was an issue with the login server.

I am having the same problem.
Working fine on my phone but cannot login via my desktop - keep getting the Usernameor Password not recognized error.
Any help would be great

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

I have a similar problem except the Android app doesn't work either.- posted a question about it a couple of hours ago but no response.

When someone sends you an invitation on ReadyCLOUD to join a NAS, a temporary account is created for you. You need to accept the invitation in order to create an account, or the invitation needs to expire/be canceled in order to create the account. It's done like this for security: imagine if user1 was invited to a NAS by user2 and user3 found out, user3 would be able to create an account using user1's e-mail address and gain remote access to a ReadyNAS.
If you had an account, and for some reason, it is no longer valid, you should be contacting Support to inquire what happened to the account.

I wasn't sent an invite, it was me as admin trying to login to my Readycloud account from a location which had worked fine on previous occasions. However, as I mentioned in my previous reply, now that I'm back home, it's all working fine. I still believe there must have been a problem yesterday which has now been sorted, especially as two others in this thread reported the same problem.
Thanks.

Did you recently update the firmware of your NAS?
Regards,
Interestingly I've now returned home and it's all working fine :smileysurprised:! I didn't update the firmware on my NAS recently JennC, it's still at version 6.2.5. However, now that I can access my NAS at 'admin' level, I see that I am being prompted to update to version 6.4.0. Guess I'd better update it.
Still doesn't explain why Readycloud wasn't working properly when I tried accessing my NAS from a different location yesterday :smileyfrustrated:.
Thanks.
