Greetings everyone. I just purchased this 2 drive unit and I'm having issues getting to the setup screen. I can see the unit on my network but the setup screen fails with 

The connection for this site is not secure

10.0.0.109 uses an unsupported protocol.

ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH

 

I've tried Edge, Chrome and Firefox, none give me the option to bypass the secure connection. Ive read thru most of the discussions here and none seem to answer the issue. Any suggestions?

There's an extensive discussion here:

Edge in IE mode should work.  There is a setting in FireFox to allow TLS 1.0 connections, the posts at the end of the above link will point you to that.

After you are in, you can enable ssh, and then edit virtual.conf as described in the beginning of the above link.

This isn't the only issue you will run into - the NAS will also require you to enable SMB 1/CIFS on the PCs.

Netgear stopped selling it back in 2011, and the final firmware release was in 2017.
