Cannot access admin page...ReadyNAS "Admin Page" is offline
Hello, I need some help. I cannot access the admin page -> Netgear ReadyNAS 314 (RNC31400) running FW 6.10.2. Every time I try to access the administration page I get prompted for the user ID and p...
Yes, login in as admin. I did try to use RAIDar but without any luck. I considered an OS reinstall from the boot menu but I wanted to leave that option last until I tried everything else.
Yesterday I got distracted with other projects and I left the browser window open where the system displayed "ReadyNAS Admin Page is offline" along with some suggestions. I left the browser window open for about 7 hours. When I came back to it I reloaded the screen and it prompted me to login back again. I figure I would try again before turning off the computer. This time it took the credentials and successfully logged me in. Now it works normally again. I don't know what the problem is/was since I had tried to clear the browser cache (all browsers) many times, I rebooted the ReadyNAS several times too. The only thing I can think of is that maybe it was a routing issue since the ReadyNAS is connected directly to my router and I was connecting to it from a wireless access point. The ReadyNAS has a static IP address but perhaps the wireless access point had a glitch.
So far I have been able to log back into the ReadyNAS several times so it seems all is working again.
Thanks for the suggestions.

You are logging in as admin?
Have you tried downloading the log zip file using RAIDar? https://kb.netgear.com/20684/ReadyNAS-Downloads#raidar
One option is to try doing an OS reinstall from the boot menu, using the instructions on pages 74-75 here: http://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/READYNAS-100/ReadyNAS_%20OS6_Desktop_HM_EN.pdf
That will
- reset the admin password to password
- reset the network configuration (DHCP, no bonding)
- disable volume quota (can be turned on again from the settings wheel on the volume page).
But it would be best to check the log zip file first - in particular, it would be helpful to know if the system's root partition is full. You can see this in volume.log. Scroll down to the === df -h === section, and look at /dev/md0 - which is the OS partition of the NAS. Normally it is about 25% full.
