How to change the IP address on the Nas to match my current range?
An OS reinstall will do the trick. See pages 12-13 here:
That will
- reset the network config to use DHCP with no bonding
- reset the admin password to netgear1
It will not delete shares or change other settings.
Likely after you do this, you will also find that you get a SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH error when you try to access frontview.
You can work around this by using FireFox, and setting security.tls.version.min to 1 (browse to about:config and search for the setting). Then install this add-on to add TLS 1.2 support to your NAS.

Thanks for you help StephenB,
I did some reading up after going through your answer.
It is clear for me that my IT experience is very low! 🙂
I found that it may be possible to add an extra IP range to my existing one so that my computer can access the Readynas.
Would you agree that this is viable?
I now have a 192.168.2.-- range and would like to add a 1.83.10.-- range
Do you see a possible solution for that, and if so how?
Cheers, Ron
