Firmware 6.10.5 web interface broken in final release
My RN10200 had a 2tb drive die - so I replaced with two 4TB Seagate Iron Wolf NAS drives. There was a notice that a new version of the firmware was available 6.10.5 so I figured I should update this....
I was eventually able to get Firefox on my laptop to get on the the NAS web interface after doing a lot of playing around clearing caches/histories, etc. So I chose the firmware update feature in the interface to go back to the 6.10.3 version. After a reboot this seem to allow access to the NAS interface from everywhere again. So I'm not sure what the advantages might be of 6.10.5 - but the problems with the web interface seem to negate any improvements that might be in the latest version. So I'd be wary of this available update and treat the latest version as being still in beta.
The 6.10.3 inteface does keep coming up and saying that a later release (6.10.4) is available and do I want to install that. But after my experience with 6.10.5 I think I'll keep replying to ignore the optional update and stick with 6.10.3 that has been stable for a long while.

Chuck.
I'm seeing the same issue on my RN104. Login is looping in IE, Chrome, Firefox (including private browsing). Even seeing the same thing using Firefox from my phone. Can't access the web interface to downgrade. Only app installed is Plex.
Rebooted the unit, no change.
SSH is disabled, so I can't fix it that way.

Keep trying. You may get it eventually. I finally did an OS Reinstall. Then when the WebUi starts to come up to Overview, click on System before it shows the installed apps. Took a couple of trys before it worked. Also am not sure the OS Reinstall accomplished anything. You'll want to have an image of 6.10.4 firmware ready to manually install.
Oops: should has written Settings, not System

In another thread on this issue, another user said something that suggested that the time on the NAS being wrong my have an effect. On a unit where you did finally get through, is there any indication in the log that the timestamp at boot is wrong, like maybe the battery is dead?
