Hi Stephen,
Thanks for your suggestion.
I've only been able to get so far with the Firefox aspect, as I'm now trying to sign in but unfortunately, it doesn't appear that the login credentials I think I used initial are correct.
You don't happen to know if there's a way to force a reset on the Username and Password (without doing a full factory reset which, I think, wants to wipe the drives) do you?
Thanks in advance.
Ashley.

The username has to be "admin". The default password for the account with the Duo v2 is "password"
An OS reinstall will reset the password back to the default. It will also reset the NAS to use DHCP (likely it is already). Instructions are on pages 16-17 of the hardware manual here:
The OS reinstall will not harm your data. The factory default will, so be careful not to do that by mistake.
BTW, 5.3.7 firmware is rather old. After you regain access, you should update it to 5.3.13 (The final firmware for your NAS).
