I have several support tickets open with Netgear, one of them being for my RN516 asking a question about ReadyCloud, I had assumed that ReadyCloud was the mechanism Netgear provide to allow users (invited ReadyCloud users) to securly access the NAS and only see content that these users were given access to.
Is Netgear saying that this is not the case and that ReadyCloud is only for the purpose of administering the NAS device by the admin user (well primary ReadyCloud user)?
In which case what is the Netgears recommended way to securely allow another person or people to each have access to limited content contained on the NAS without having to install extra genie apps (which as far as I can see Netgear dont actually support it up to the developers of the apps, but I cant see how you can contact the developers to report issues), allowing them to view/download/upload/(possibly delete).
