Can't log in to ReadyNAS 104 after latest update
Hello Everyone, Thank you in advance for any help with my issue. I am a neophyte regarding NAS and my ReadyNAS 104. Have used it since new for many years. I don't recall the last time I updated fir...
I used the first two password recovery methods, several times both before and after a "gentle shut down", per the NetGear instructions, and all attempts with the first two methods resulted in a terminally-spinning progress wheel. Finally, I used the third method, Boot Mode > OS Reinstall method and it worked. Got in via default password, "password" and was able to successfully reset my password.
Thank you, Michael, for your link.
Sincerely,
Michael Johnson

While many questions about routers are generic and could be answered anywhere, some things need specialist knowledge. In your case, we aren't talking about routers, the subject for this section.
You might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your device, in the appropriate section for your hardware. That's probably here:

I will ask the Netgear moderator to move your message.
In the meantime you could visit the support pages:
Support | NETGEAR
Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware. Look at the label on the device for the model number.
Check for various troubleshooting tips.
You may have done this already. I can't tell from your message.
I mention it because Netgear stopped supplying printed manuals and CD versions some years ago and people sometimes miss the downloads.
Thank you, Michael Kenward, for your reply and request that my question be moved to the correct forum. I apologize, I didn't realize I was in the wrong forum. I will check the link you provided.

No problem. This place is a mess. I didn't want you to think that people were ignoring your question.
