No remote access to local admin page with the mynetgear account
I used to happily log into my RN10200 remotely and access everything, including the Local Admin page. That was using ReadyCloud, i.e. before the hopeless webpage access we get using mynetgear. The we...

The images did work and I saw them, they just hadn't been approved yet (just fixed that).
Have you tried downloading the ReadyCLOUD app using a different web browser?

I was once able to access both my readynas duo and my RN10200 with the one app, then readycloud was the new "upgrade". However it was a major degradation to the functionality I once had because I could no longer access my Readynas duo. Then when I tried to install readynas remote as well, it uninstalled my readycloud.
That's when I discovered they couldn't both be installed on the same machine, which was hopeless for me and numerous others.
Somewhere in there it changed so that I could no longer access my RN10200 using Readyns remote. So now I had to have either remote or cloud because nobody was clever enough to make it so they could both be used at once and I wasn't impressed with netgear following microsoft's example of removing functionality with a so called "upgrade".
There were a lot of complaints in the netgear community about that downgrade.
Then the readycloud to mynetgear change was implemented and I logged in using mynetgear on the web whilst I was overseas. This made my readycloud interface (app) on my laptop redundant and now I could not access my RN10200 nas using mynetgear either! I was advised I needed to be in the same physical location as the nas, but I was in Dublin so could not be.
Now I had no access to my nas at all, yay. Luckily I have Team Viewer and once someone was able to get to my pc to turn it on, I could access my stuff again. My pc now having to stay on sucked, because one reason I set up my nas was so I didn't need to leave the pc on. Also the internet I used in Ireland was wi-fi over the air for 90% of the time, so pretty bad.
Now I'm back in Australia and I can access my RN10200, only via the readycloud webpage. If I download the readycloud app from the netgear website, my laptop and pc tell me that the signature is corrupt and my only option is to delete it. So I can't download the readycloud "app", I can't access the local admin page on my RN10200 from the readycloud web interface, and I still can't remotely access my readynas duo.
Nobody could fix my qbittorrent problem (yet another story, lol), so now I just want at least something back from this new mynetgear approach to doing things,
i.e. remote access to my RN10200 with access to the local admin page, like I used to have.
Thanks...
