Hello Nitupsar,
Try creating an account first. See How to setup remote access with ReadyNAS Remote for steps how to.
Make sure the username you create is not the same with any share name and local user of the NAS, and please also take note of the case sensitivity of the user name.
If you are having trouble creating an account using the ReadyNAS Remote client, create the account at https://remote.readynas.com/
If you already have an account, login to https://remote.readynas.com/ to check if you can log in so you will know if it is activated.
I hope this helps you. We look forward to your update.
Regards,

I have done all you suggested. I even deleted the user and created a new one with which I managed to log in. That part is ok. But when I go to Readynas remote admin to discover devices nothing happens. No devices are regisered and none is discovered.
It says offline discovery and installation can be dine via Raidar, but where i n the Raidar menu can i find this option?
Please walk me through this procedure!

Do you mean ReadyCloud discovery? ReadyCloud is available for ReadyNAS OS6 devices only.
For legacy devices such as yours you can use the ReadyNAS Remote app to remotely access your NAS.

Thank you.
Is the ReadyNAS Remote app that you mention a PC app or an Android app?
And can you please gove me a link to it?
Most importantly: Does legacy in real life mean outdated and close to useless? ;)
