How to reset the admin password for ReadyNAS10200

Hello hatem,

I believe this unit you have is a ReadyNAS OS4.

To recover your administrator password using NETGEAR's password recovery tool, follow these steps: 

1. Using a web browser, visit https://<ReadyNAS_IP_address>/password_recovery.<ReadyNAS_IP_address> is the IP address of your ReadyNAS system.
2. Enter the email address and password recovery answer you enabled on your ReadyNAS storage system and click the Reset password and email button.

NETGEAR resets your administrator password and sends an email message with the new password to you.

Or

Recover Your Administrator Password Using an OS Reinstall Reboot

This process does not remove data from the system, but resets the administrator user name and password to the factory defaults:

• Factory default user name. admin
• Factory default password. netgear1

To recover your administrator password using an OS reinstall reboot, perform an OS reinstall reboot on your storage system.

The process for performing an OS reinstall reset reboot varies by storage system. This is performed from the boot menu.
