Managing a ReadyNAS after ReadyCloud is gone
I've seen a few posts about ReadyCloud alternatives, but most seem to be focused on accessing shares remotely. I don't need to access the shares, but I do need to be able to access the NAS GUI to do ...

Not relevant for your NAS, that is a workaround for systems that run 4.x and 5.x firmware. Not for 6.x.

tried current Chrome current Edge on up to date W10, tried FFox on W7, getting a progress stripe for maybe 60 secs or so, then get the message 'Ready NAS Admin page is offline', NAS is online, can access files/folders via network folder share
I suspect you will see precisely the same behavior with ReadyCloud. It's not about your browser.
Try rebooting the NAS.
thanks very much! not very familar with different version, so I thought that was my issue...
hmmm... this was originally a RN31400 with 3 SATA HDDs, it failed few weeks ago, they thought it was a power supply maybe not providing amps, as voltage was OK, replaced power supply, same issue: on power up LCD lights up, but, after maybe few seconds LCD goes off, unit shuts down.
couldn't find identical RN31400 unit, came across a RN10400 unit, took a punt it should work...plugged the 3 drives, powered on, unit powered up, hooked to LAN, \\NAS-01 visible, all shares working as before, all seems OK - EXCEPT, different IP (192.168.0.37/38 (I think it was different before - not sure?))
wanted to open web i/f, times out.
the Netgear utility picks it up, says healthy, runs test OK, it's abt 90% free - but just can't open web GUI, just get Netgear logo screen
appreciate any pointers, thank you!
