Hi CILLC,
After you upgrade your account to a MyNETGEAR Account which is a email format address, you can download new ReadyCloud App for Windows & Mac on readycloud.netgear.com to remote access your nases.
1. Use the email format Account login in the readycloud App on Windows & Mac.
2. You will see you nas connected.
3. Click any share you want to access.
4. You can read/write to the share if the user you log in with have need permission. You can set permission for invitee user on readycloud.netgear.com
5. Additionally, Readycloud App on Windows & Mac can also have "Sync with PC" and "Backup PC Folder" menu to backup files on local with remote NAS.
"Sync with PC" is two-way backup. While "Backup PC Folder" is one-way backup. It just backup local folder to remote NAS, and file/folder in remote NAS cannot backup to local.
Of course, you can still use the old ReadyNAS Remote to access your nases. After you upgrade to MyNETGEAR Account, just login the old ReadyNAS Remote client with your remote username/password to access them.
Hope you enjoy using your ReadyNAS storage.
