EDIT - HaNG ON A MINUTE! When I tried it a minute ago I added a new credential using the IP of the readynas. I just added a new one again using READYNAS in capitals (The exact device name on the network) and now I'm in!

"verify the path points to a correct network location and that the supplied credentials can be used for write access to the folder" (Validation information class requested was invalid . (0x80070544)Try using READYNAS\admin as the username in the windows credential. The NAS doesn't care about the READYNAS\ prefix, but I have some some postings that suggests that Windows backup does.
I did turn off ipv6, then went back to the shares page and turned off then back on the shares (didn't understand what locally Map the shares meant!) but still the admin page and the readynas app are the only things that can access the folders properly.
In 'this pc' I can double click readynas and get a few folders, a kind of simplified set, videos, pictures etc, but it isn't the complete set of all the folders I have in admin.
Accessing the readynas under 'network', or trying to set up a folder location for a backup via windows backup, or trying to access the folders via ftp or via dlna all completely lock me out.
