Hi mandsguy,
Welcome to the Community!
In accessing the admin page and setting up the password recovery, you can try typing https://ReadyNAS_IP_address/admin on your web browser, wherein ReadyNAS_IP_address is the IP address of your ReadyNAS, then go to Security> Admin Password.
If you do not remember the admin password for the NAS, you can do an OS re-install so the password will go back to default. The default password is netgear1. You can check this link for the steps on how to access the boot menu and select the OS re-install.
