Locked out of ReadyNAS NV+, all ports closed
Hello!
Somehow, I managed to get locked out of my ReadyNAS NV+. I suppose it's possible that I'm an idiot and did something stupid, but I'm not quite sure about that... Could be bitrot? Anyhow, it went into storage for a while, and came out completely locked down. It responds to ping, but I can't access it via http/https (no Frontview) or ssh. According to nmap the only 2 open ports are 111 (rpcbind) and 631 (ipp), and neither services are very helpful. However, one glimmer of hope, which I don't quite understand how it's working, is it shows up with status "Healthy" in RAIDar. It shows the right number of hard drives and IP address, but doesn't list a firmware version. Of course, poking the "Admin Page" in RAIDar goes nowhere.
Help! What should I do?

I guess you could try an OS reinstall. There are two side effects: it will reset the network configuration to use DHCP and the admin password to netgear1.
If you have a backup of the data, you could of course do a factory default.
