Is this relevant?Could be, it depends on what connection it was (and why).
Can you look at volume.log? Scroll down until you get to the df -h and df -i sections. I'd like to see the two entries for /dev/md0:
=== df -h === Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/md0 3.7G 829M 2.7G 24% / === df -i === Filesystem Inodes IUsed IFree IUse% Mounted on /dev/md0 1048576 14418 1034158 2% /

Ok. So I've found out my rn102 is not connected to the internet. It is accessible through my network though.
I don't run a Netgear router, so how do I set up a different router to let the NAS go online.
Also I am not great at computers and networking. So be kind. Thanks

Can you summarize how you reached that conclusion?
Is the NAS set up to use DHCP, or did you configure a static IP address?

I've logged into the router and the NAS shows up as connected to the router, and the router is connected to the internet. I turned off the router firewall but it didn't make any difference- StephenBJul 30, 2022Guru - Experienced User

If you are using NTP (automatic time sync) you can download the log zip and look for NTP time adjustments in connman.log. If those are present, then it is able to reach the internet.
NTP is enabled by default, so it likely is on. Click on the settings wheel next to device time on the main page in the admin web ui. You should see a pop-up then. Make sure synchronize time with an internet server is checked.
Then go to the logs page, and download the log zip using the button on the upper right of the page. Open connman.log (notepad will read it) and look for entries like this:
Jun 30 23:52:28 NAS connmand[5599]: ntp: adjust (slew): +0.000869 sec
If you see these adjustments, then the NAS is reaching the internet.
