Hi seagull3,

You can try disabling and re-enabling the ReadyCLOUD service on NAS. You can also try logging out and logging back into the ReadyCLOUD desktop app and see if that helps.

Hi seagull3,

Welcome to the Community!

Have you checked if the ReadyCLOUD service is enabled on the NAS? Since you did a factory reset, this service will be set to OFF by default.

You may check this by logging to the NAS admin page, then go to Cloud tab.

Once it is enabled, you should see on that page that the Internet and Service have green check marks

Sorry for being ignorance. How do I enable the service on the NAS? Attached is the screencapture of my ReadyCLOUD. I can not go to the NAS admin page.

Thanks

  Well, that is exactly what you do need to do. Have you tried https://nas-ip-address/admin ? Once you are in the admin web ui, you go to the cloud page and enable ReadyCloud.

    Thank you very much. Now I am able to access to the admin page and did what you instructed me to do. Now when I try to backup using ReadyCLOUD, it runs synchronizing at 0%, then synchronization Offline. It keeps running that way ...forever. The folder size is not really big, it's about 5GB.
    
    Could you please tell me what to do next.
    
    Thanks
