I can see the ReadyNAS server i RAIDar but cant access the admin page for the ReadyNAS. Any suggestions?

The cipher mismatch problem is because browsers now require TLS 1.2, and the NAS doesn't support that. A workaround is to use FireFox and set security.tls.version.min to 1 (browse to about:config and search for the setting). You can also modify virtual.conf so you can access Frontview using http (not HTTPS). That requires use of ssh. Let us know if you want more information on that.

You'll find that you can still install deb files by going to system->setting->update, and then use the "install firmware" control. Or of course you can downgrade to 6.10.9 or use ssh. Though you do need to make changes to the apt configuration, in order to access the Debian libraries (which were archived by the Debian community when they deprecated Jessie). More information on that is here: https://community.netgear.com/discussions/readynas-legacy-add-ons/no-apps-available-on-my-readynas102-after-a-factory-reset/2459050/replies/2459099

Thanks Stephen, that works swimmingly! You guys rock! I love this place!

Exactly what error occurs? Are you attempting to connect by selecting the Admin Page button in Raidar? When did you last access the admin page successfully?

ReadyNAS NV+ can't access the admin page!

  I really don't remember how I can access to my music library on the NAS from Linn Kazoo in Windows or Linn apps...do I need to install a media server on the ReadyNAS?

    You are accessing the shares page. You should be browsing to https://192.168.50.192/admin
    
    But you will get the cipher mismatch/SSL error if you don't first change the TLS version min in FireFox.
