Readynas Public Link down?

I also confirmed all is working this morning including new invitations! This has been asked before, but why can't the RP2 just be made as a standalone add-on? In short, the server would reside on the individual's NAS rather than using Netgears servers to funnel the traffic to/from the NAS. This was one of my pet-peeves when I originally purchased the NAS as all other add-ons reside locally where this one needs to communicate with remote servers to function correclty. That aside, thanks for fixing it as the invitations now seem to be processed faster.

Nobody has an idea of these message from Photos II means ????? and what to check when yu get error -2 ?.
I still can't send any invitations


OK: All connection tests from ReadyNAS Photos II to UPnP Router and photos.readynas.com site have passed.
OK: Hostname nas-x-x-x is available.
Error: Fail to access Photos II (http://xx.yyy.zzz.ww:8086) from internet. (error=-2).
OK: Successfully found your public IP (xx.yyy.zzz.ww).

Where is the ReadyNAS Photos II support ??? It's been 1 month and 3 posts i left here and since then i did not get even the beginning of an answer!!!
And i still cannot access RNP2 ...
Please let me know seriously what to do to fix this error =-2
Txs

Best if you contact NTGR Support and have them work on reaching the Engineers. As seen here, one dev only showed up after repeated alternative contact methods.

Is this down again? I created an album yesterday and the invitation gets sent but clicking on any of the links in the inviation results in Web page not available. Is anyone else seeing this? I also rebooted the NAS with no success. I have not tried uninstalling and re-installing as I suspect it's not me at this point.


Sorry, I pinpointed this to Verizon FiOS router and have now fixed the inbound session. You have to love the fact they can access their device anytime and make changes without informing you. :D

I had no trouble with albums today.

Hi all!
I got an answer for the quoted problem below from the Swedish support team and I'm gonna try and translate it so everyone understands.

"Hi!
We have been told by engineering that the problem with ReadyNas Photos 2 will be fixed with the next update for the NAS.
I'm sorry but I can't give you a date when the update is coming but we have to hope that it won't be to far away.
I will close this ticket now."

This answer could fit quite well since the problem started for me after I installed the latest firmware.
So lets keep our fingers crossed that a new firmware will be available soon and it will fix this problem.

Hi , i don't know if all works fine for everybody but on my side things have changed but i'm still stuck with Phoyos II. When i use the Manage ReadyNas Photo II function i get a status not ready and when i use the diagnose option i get the following OK: All connection tests from ReadyNAS Photos II to UPnP Router and photos.readynas.com site have passed. OK: Hostname nas-A0-51-80 is available. Error: Fail to access Photos II (http://xx.yyy.zzz.ww:8086) from internet. (error=-2). If you disabled automatic configuration of UPnP router, please make sure port 8086 is forwarded to the NAS. OK: Successfully found your public IP (xx.yyy.zzz.ww). I have to tell you that of course i did not disable the automatic configuration of UPnP router that i rebooted both the router & the NAS more than one tilme . Could you tell me what is the meaning of RC -2 from internet . One more info: before to upgrade to 5.3.6 everything was fine with Photos II (about one month ago) and that i am at level 5.3.7 now Txs for your help

Hello,

Any news about this? I'm having the same problem. Any official communicate from NETGEAR about this issue?

Thanks in advance for your reply.

The Photos2 service seems to be working fine for me.

If you are still having problems and want to know how to completely avoid the middle-man service that ReadyNAS provides, so that you can share your albums directly, PM me.

Looks like the photos.readynas.com is broken again. PHP scripts are returning as plain-text, not interpreted HTML. If this was any other company, there would be 24/7 monitoring of public services, so the internal staff would know before customers...
