Hello,
Could you please clarify your setup again? I am not sure if I understand correctly.
Your default user is not the admin? Does this default user have access to all shares including the new user’s shares? If not, have you removed all current network connections using net use * /delete (assuming you are on Windows), before trying to connect with "newuser"? What error message did you receive trying to open \\NAS-IP-Address\newuser ? Please try connecting to \\NAS-IP-Address and then enter user credentials of "newuser"
The "invite user" function is only available when you log-in to readycloud.netgear.com with your default ReadyCLOUD user account.
Bye,
Eskender
