Can’t access Frontview GUI on ReadyNAS Duo v2 RND2110v2
My ReadyNAS is working OK, and I can access all the content stored on it (I use it as a server for a Logitech Squeezebox system, and for storing photos).
Recently I’ve found I can’t access the FrontView GUI to check status, manage shares, etc.
I just get an error message saying “can’t connect” or similar, when I try to visit
https://192.168.1.79/admin (I use a static IP address).
I’ve tried using Safari, Chrome and Firefox from my iPad Pro (OS 16.7.10) and my iPhone 14 Pro (IOS 18.2.1).
I’ve also tried from a Windows 7 desktop machine, using IE, Edge, Firefox, Chrome, Safari and PaleMoon, but none of them work. I’ve tried tweaking TLS settings, but it made no difference. In all cases, though, I can view the stored content.
How can I overcome this ?
I assumed that too, but what could it be ? I removed Norton, and turned off Windows Firewall, but it still won’t work on any browser.

Does the error include "SSL Version error" or "Cipher Mismatch"?

Does the front panel
- say "ReadyNAS Duo"
- Or "ReadyNAS Duo v2"?
Please ignore any other labels, as they are misleading.
The label says ReadyNAS Duo.
No mention in the error msg of SSL or cypher.
You have the original Duo, which we call a V1 here. Netgear really screwed up calling an entirely new product a "V2" when they had preciously used "v2" and "v3" to indicate minor hardware differences.
Your problem is undoubtedly because that NAS is limited to TLS V1.0, which is no longer supported by most browsers. If you are not getting an error message like StephenB mentioned, then you may have something else also blocking it, such as your antivirus/firewall software.
What exactly does the error message say?
On firefox you can modify the TLS config going on about:config and filtering on TLS.
I personally turned "security.tls.version.min" to 1 and it works fine.
