ReadyNAS DUO v1 and new ReadyCloud doesn't work- How to?

Hello, I used ReadyNAS remote all time. Now I changed to Windows 8. But how can I connect to my two RND2000 ReadyNAS DUO V1. Both have the newest Firmware. But ReadyCloud can't discover my NAS's. ...

This is probably an issue that is being worked on, ReadyCloud was designed for OS6 units but some users (like you) are able to see their NAS using the ReadyCloud app on android phones. For your PC, try installing this and run compatibility for Win7:

  Hello CapnOdyssey,
  
  Welcome to the community!
  
  Unfortunately, there is no plan getting ReadyCloud to work with ReadyNAS Duo or any legacy NAS. ReadyCloud is for ReadyNAS OS6 while ReadyNAS Remote is for the legacy NAS models (OS4 and OS5).

    This is perhapos one of the worst decisions Netgear has made with respect to the ReadyNAS line. If the two clients could both be installed on the same computer, it would not be an issue. But anyone that has both new and legacy equipment must now choose which they will have remote access to and which they will not. That Netgear does not underestand the severity of this debacle is truly astounding. If anyone who supports this forum has access to anyone at Netgear who is able to make decisions, please pass this on to them.
