Corrupt Root ReadyNAS Duo V1

Thank you. I have continued with the tech team. In fact, I even think we're getting closer to a "final" solution!!
Another problem I encounter is setting a password. The units do not respond to "password" or "Password." The RAIDar has their IP addresses as "10.0.0.xx," but using these to access a password setting or recovery is not working!!
Any suggestions for this challenge?
Again, thank you for sticking with me.

Stephen ...
Many thanks. You (and others) have been so helpful, and I feel a quite sheepish in attempting some solutions on my own (all of which seem to spell further trouble).
I did notice your password comment to another user while I was perusing the posts searching out the "how to ..." for a password reset.
Now, with just a bit further to go (tech team giving a hand, here), I may be "back in business" all around. Although my own actions resulted in some data loss, I hope to use (recover and duplicate) the remaining files.
Once I am again set, I will arrange auto backup (if such exists) from my duo v1 and v2 to my 102. Hopefully, then, in future a disk failure or a "corrupt root" will not criple me as has been the recent case.
Again, thank you.
