If you right-click on the icon and choose "properties", you should see the "device web page" listed. What URL are you seeing there?

That is, of course, the same as double clicking the icon. The URL Firefox is bringing up is: file:///C:/Users/Robert/AppData/Local/Microsoft/Windows/INetCache/IE/A3W76XZA/815I8KYH. Not at all as simple as 192.168.X.X/admin for sure.....

That is not what I am seeing.
For the network icons under storage:
My duo v1, nv+ v1 and pro shows https:/10.0.0.xx/admin
My RN102 (running 6.4.1-T19) shows https://readycloud.netgear.com - which is bogus, because readycloud is not enabled on that NAS.
My RN202 (running 6.3.5) shows up under media devices (it has plex installed), but doesn't show up under storage at all.

In 6.4.2 Clicking on the ReadyNAS icon under storage now gets you to the ReadyCloud homepage. Better, but still not as good as taking me directly to the server's admin login.
