Cannot connect ReadyNas Pro 6 on Mac OSX Ventura
Firmware 4.2.19 IP Address: 192.168.168.168 (00:1F:33:EA:BA:81) RAIDar does identify the NAS, the number of discs, name, IP adress. However, it can't connect to the storage itself. I can see...

192.168.168.168 is the failover IP address of your NAS (the one it uses when DHCP fails). What is the IP of your PC? (it would need to be 192.168.168.x to connect). Did you try rebooting the NAS?
When was the last time you tried to connect to Frontview? If it's been a year, you likely will run into another issue (a SSL protocol/Cipher mismatch errror) after you get past this problem.
BTW, you are running firmware from 2012. Once you get past these issues you should update it to 4.2.31 (the final firmware for your NAS). Or (preferably) convert the NAS to run OS-6. But first we should focus on getting your access back.

If just re-booting doesn't help, try swapping Ethernet ports (on both the NAS and router/switch) and a new cable.
