Admin page keeps refreshing...time off after 6.10.5 hotfix
I just applied the 6.10.4->6.10.5 hotfix. The files are accessible from Windows Explorer, but I cannot do any maintenance via the web page (I tried in various browsers) because the admin page keeps...
Ok... I finally had a few minutes to sit down and try to work through this issue...again.
I entered the boot menu and chose to do an OS install. After completing that process I was able to log into the NAS from any browser/computer on my network and all worked as it should...until.
Until I set a new password (OS install resets password to default). Once the new password was accepted, the anomalous behavior returned and I get disconnected every few seconds. Looking at the inspector/console output from Chrome/FF/Edge, the problem appears to lie in the js code attached to a Google Analytics cookie. Why is this on my NAS!? The site loads but when the cookie attempts to set all the browsers report errors and that's when I lose the connection. Why this behavior is absent with the defaults set I have no clue.
Just for yucks, I tried logging in using Edge on my Android phone. It worked for about 5 minutes but then logged me out when I changed pages. I then tried Chrome on my phone and that failed in the same way.
