#19436397 5.3.6 ARM-Unable to use ReadyNAS remote
Hi Duo V2 Since upgrading to 5.3.6 users have been unable to access log into the NAS via ReadyNAS remote. I get "ReadyNAS Remote Online - Andy Asker" but it never actually connects to the serve...

Ok guys another day and I have slept well and not so grizzly as I was yesterday :)
Nevertheless I do not seem to be getting anywhere.
1. I have now uninstalled the Remote Add-On and then going into Dashboard (System/Settings) it reveals two icons each with a switch - ReadyNas Remote and ReadyDrop. ReadyNas Remote can be switched on but if you refresh the page it goes back to the off position. The ReadyDrop icon does not allow me to turn it on. When I switch on ReadyNas Remote, nothing appears underneath - perhaps it should show some way to manage your ReadyNas Remote Users? as otherwise how do we "Allow" "Remove" and "Add" new/existing Users?
2. When the ReadyNas Remote icon is in the "On" position, my ReadyNas Remote App will not connect to my ReadyNas Server on my Android phone. Furthermore my PC's (windows) ReadyNas Remote app will allow me to login but it refuses to show that my server is online, supported by the fact that I cannot acess my ReadyNas shares via this method. This being the case, I daresay my 3 users cannot either.
3. There is something fundmentally wrong here - I assume, as I have already said, that there should be an option to manage my ReadyNas Remote Users, there is not. When I turn on ReadyNas Remote, it should stay on. Me thinks whilst I can turn it on, in reality it isn't turning on.
4. What is ReadyNas Drop? Should this be enabled? I haven't a clue what this is about and wonder if it is part of the ReadyNas Remote functionality?
5. Perhaps someone can suggest what to do here as I daresay my problems will be replicated by others and it would be good to have a solution posted in this forum. I assume however that when you say "IM" you mean send a "Private Message"? I will PM cap1 if all else fails.
Thank you
