Hi 61gazza,
Welcome to the community!
Your ReadyNAS is not obtaining an IP address from your router (network). Try to use another port or cable and see if that helps. With regard to accessing the device via its default IP address of 192.168.168.168, you need to set a static IP and subnet mask in your PCs NIC or LAN.
Eg. IP Address: 192.168.168.167
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Once applied, open up a web browser and access https://192.168.168.168/admin
Let me know if you have other question.
Kind regards,
BrianL
