Frontview only partially working; no shares currently accessible

Hi all,

 

Forum newble here. Had great experience with ReadyNAS Duo (current Firmware 4.1.15) for many years then all of a sudden I couldn't access the NAS via Frontview; a seemingly standard "No shares currently accessible" message appears. Despite the message, the NAS still had data on it and was serving my Logitech Squeezebox devices without issue (my main requirement). I tried to fix it and from looking at this forum there was suggestion reinstalling the OS would help - no joy - so proceeded to a factory reset. All that served to do is stop the streaming services working, presumably because the shares need reinstalling which I can't now do. Any ideas folks?

 

Many thanks for your advice

    Of course if you did a factory reset, all your data was destroyed.

     

    http://nas-ip-address redirects to http://nas-ip-address/sharesThat will only give you a share list if you have http enabled as a protocol for some shares.  Http is not enabled by default (if I remember correctly).

     

    Are you seeing the admin interface when you connect to https://nas-ip-address/admin?  (use the real NAS ip address of course).  If you did factory reset (or OS reinstall) the username is admin and the password is netgear1.

     

    If not, then what status do you see from RAIDar?  https://kb.netgear.com/20684/ReadyNAS-Downloads

      Thanks for coming back so promptly. This is the screen I'm presented with if I navigate either via RAIDar or the IP address of the NAS. It normally displays options down the left hand side but since this problem has manifest, nothing is available.

      I wasn't aware a factory reset deleted all hard-drive data - my bad - thanks for the clarification. Fortunately I have all my media backed up in other locations. Once the NAS is back on line I'll get it going again. 

       

      Any thoughts?

        As I said, https://nas-ip-address/admin
