ReadyNas Surveillance License - how to buy / get a license for 1 camera
I am trying to setup Readynas Surveillance on my Readynas 104. I was able to install the app no problem but I am having issues in trying to get a license for 1 camera. How can I buy it or, alternativ...

Perhaps JohnCM_S or Marc_V could help.
But I think you'd be better off getting a surveillance package that runs on a PC (but still storing the footage on the NAS). Something like Blue Iris. The RN100 series has the slowest processor and the least memory of all the OS-6 platforms, I think you'd get better results hosting the package on a more powerful platform.
Netgear stopped offering ReadyNAS surveillance some ago (2017 I think). There was a brief flirtation with Milestone Arcus, but that ended at the end of 2018.
I don't know of any alternatives at the present time.
- Does this mean that there is no way to use the application anymore? Even if the 1 camera license was free?

There are some known security vulnerabilities.

The system is behind a firewall so security is not an issue as it is not accessible outside the network.
Will be possible to receive a free license code/serial number?
