REadyNAS 104, in the wrong local network
I have replaced my router and unfortunately my RN104 is on the old local network which has a different number serie. How can I access RN104 on my new local network? Do I need to do a reinstall and if so how do I do it? I do NOT want to do a reset.

One option is to temporally re-configure the router to use the old subnet. Then access the NAS and reset the network configuration to use DHCP.
A second option is to do an OS reinstall from the front panel. That will reset the network to use DHCP, reset the admin password to password, and disable volume quota (on the volume settings wheel). It shouldn't affect your data (or other settings). Instructions start on page 28 here: https://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/READYNAS-100/ReadyNAS_%20OS6_Desktop_HM_EN.pdf
I suggest reserving IP addresses in your router instead of configuring static IP addresses in your NAS or other devices.
