Readynas web interface disabled
My RN3138 was connected via the admin interface that was found with RAIDar. added my disks, applied the RAID level and some users.
The I disabled the webinterface, thinking that this was just one of the ethernet ports on the back of the RN3138. It turns out that now RAIDar "NETGEAR storage is not accessible form this computer Check your network settings', though it finds the device at 192.168.1.166 and with the right device name and healthy status. Diagnostics is also not possible (tried all users) as well as Download logs. I tried ssh - login denied. https//192.168.1.166/admin is not served
So what now ?

How did you do that?

I don't remember, maybe I unchecked one of the HTTP buttons ?
Kind regards,

You can't (at least not with recent firmware). Those services can't be unchecked. Usually failure to reach the web interface means that something else has gone wrong. FWIW, while a bad status in RAIDar means something is wrong, a healthy status in RAIDar doesn't necessarily mean that things are ok.
Is RAIDar showing you that the RAID array is still syncing?
Is your local subnet 192.168.1.x?
If so, have you tried
- accessing https://192.168.1.166/admin from another PC?
- accessing the NAS with file explorer ( \\192.168.1.166 in the address bar )?
You also comment that ssh access is denied.
- Was it enabled in the services page?
- If you are getting to the login prompt, make sure you enter root as the username, and use the NAS admin password.
