Great, except the readycloud VPN has not been working for weeks now.
The Java-based ReadyCloud desktop client "VPN" application is obsolete and cumbersome for a longer time. It's not required to install and operate the ReadyCloud Desktop application for using the Web-based ReadyCloud portal.

Negative. The https://readycloud.netgear.com/ portal is still up and workable.
I have been using ZeroTier for almost 4 months, since the ReadyCloud VPN became extremely unreliable for weeks, back in early March 2023. They did finally fix it and as of this moment, it is working, just in time to shut it down.
But you can switch over to ZeroTier using the instructions found on this community site. It does take some minor effort and maybe minor adjustments. (I had to adapt the instructions to my NAS). But it works well. It does not give you access to the Admin Console on the NAS, but good file sharing access in Windows Explorer (Mapped Network Drive).
