Hi Damia,
Kindly make sure to NOT use a username that is the same as with any local username or share name configured on the NAS.
Let us isolate the problem. Kindly answer the questions below:
a. Do you already have an existing ReadyCLOUD account that serves as the administrator ReadyCLOUD acccount for your RN312?
b. Is this the main ReadyCLOUD account for your RN312 that you are trying to create?
Kindly post screenshots of the error message you have encountered and screenshots where and how did you get the error message. Make it detailed as possible stating your concern.
Regards,
