Can't access admin panel (ReadyNAS 102)

Hi, suddenly this morning RAIDar  couldn't disover my NAS after 2 years of working fine, all connections checked and fine. I can log in to my admin page and it says everything is fine, could someone be as kind to give me some hints as to what the problem is. Firmware is up to date and its not my antivirus.

 

                          Regards

    It sounds like nothing is actually wrong (other than that RAIDar isn't seeing the NAS).

     

    Did anything change on the network?  Is there internet security software running on the PC that might have auto-updated?

      Thanks for replying Stephen and no it isnt the Internet security,the only change to my setup lately is i bought a Denon system to stream my music but i dont see how this would impinge on my settings in any way. In fact i was beginning to think it was the RAIDar software myself, really annoying

       

                                                                                           thanks again

        You could of course disconnect the denon for a few minutes to double-check.

         

        But I don't see how it could block RAIDar's discovery.  RAIDar sends out a broadcast packet, which the NAS sees and responds to with a broadcast packet of it's own.

         

        If you didn't try restarting the RN102, I suggest trying that.
