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.
In my experience, downgrading to 6.10.4 (from 6.10.9) did not resolve the issue. I still get the admin page login loop on Mac Safari. However, what has worked for me, both before and after downgrading, is to simply use a Safari Incognito window. I am able to login with no issues that way.

I'm not familiar with Mac of Safari, but that typically means you saved an incorrect password in the browser (maybe an old one you've now changed).
Sandshark Yes, I did have the correct password saved in Safari (technically, in the Mac Passwords app). But I just now deleted it, and re-deleted all browser storage, and the admin login loop issue is still happening (on 6.10.4).
So those of you that have downgraded to 6.10.4, do you have to enter your password manually every time? Because this would be the same end result as using a private/incognito window with 6.10.9.
