Hi Odd_Job_007
In addition to Brian's suggestions, you could also try entering the following in Window CMD

Hi Odd_Job_007,
Try accessing your ReadyNAS using file explorer and use \\NAS IP address. You can also use the same address link when mapping a share in your PC.

Also, there's a similar community thread that may help you with your problem.
Here are some helpful articles you can look at.
