Had the same problem - Do you have SSH access? If so, your unit isn't "technically" a brick. You should downgrade right away to 6.10.4. (I did that and the problem went away). Contrary to other posts - it has NOTHING to do with the browser version you're using to access the unit - it happens on all browsers - it's a flaw in frontview.
Here are the instructions for the ARM unit (RN102):NB: (you MUST be ssh'ed in as 'root'):
cd /root wget http://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/READYNAS-100/ReadyNASOS-6.10.4-arm.zip unzip ReadyNASOS-6.10.4-arm.zip echo /root/ReadyNASOS-6.10.4-arm.img > /etc/.flash_update reboot
There is a hotfix that needs to be applied to that release and it will automatically be applied if your NAS settings permit hotfixes to be automatically applied... otherwise - do as you see fit.
Just ignore any further updates to 6.10.5 until they get their act together.

I too had this issue, strangely enough for my setup i used the 'admin' log in and the page is completely fine !
However other accounts all suffer from this?
My setup is a 4 drive 104 and again i am unsure if it particularly related but after the upgrade i did have a drive completely degrade, putting it in my pc prevents that from booting too strangly enough. I will be investigating this further so will get back to you guys if anything shows up and should be replacing this drive before the week is out .

Sorry to hear about the drive, but I believe that is an unrelated issue.
Though there is a common observation that drives fail most often when they're allowed to spin down & a reboot (necessary after a firmware upgrade) will do that!
