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

Question

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. On the other side: my Samsung S4 can see both with the Android-APP ReadyCloud.What must I do to see on my PC?

I COMPLETELY AGREE.&nbsp;I run both a Duo and a RN102 with things I&nbsp;need remote access to on both. remote was finding my Duo but not my RN102, so of course I installed Readycloud, believing that it would be intelligent enough to access both.&nbsp;In the process it removed remote,&nbsp;after which I discovered I could no longer access my Duo. So then I figured ok, I'll put remote on as well so I can access both Readynas. It then uninstalled cloud and wouldn't install on Windows 10 even with the compatability troubleshooter.&nbsp;So now I'm screwed! I can access my RN102 via cloud, but I'm unable to reach important data on my Duo at all.&nbsp;Netgear needs to find a solution&nbsp;as I believe this is unacceptable because it takes away important functionality that is supposed to be integral to the operation of the device.&nbsp;IT'S NOW A PAPERWEIGHT!&nbsp;

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:

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).
