I just purchased, and started working with, a ReadyNas RN102 (OS 6.x). After installing the QBittorrent app, I was able to access the web interface but no torrents would start. Basically, nothing was having any effect.
I found that, by default, the web interface was trying to connect to the qbittorrent service on port 7079 whereas the process was starting on the default 8080. Port 7079 seems best so I configured the process to use that port. (What was strange was that port 7079 was specified as the correct listening port but did not appear to be used).
In case it solves your issue, I did the following:
1. Stopped the QBittorrent App from the ReadyNAS admin page -> Apps
2. Edited /etc/init.d/qbittorrentr6 and added " -- $DAEMON_ARGS" to the end of the line as follows:
3. Started the QBittorrent App from the ReadyNAS admin page -> Apps
4. Launched the QBittorrent web client
