Password Recovery, ReadyNAS2140
Hi, I have ReadyYNAS 214. I forgot the password and there's no recovery password. No reset button and no email recovery. What should I do and I don't want to lose my data??
Do an OS reinstall from the front panel/boot menu. See pages 58-59 here: http://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/READYNAS-100/ReadyNAS_%20OS6_Desktop_HM_EN.pdf
- The admin password will be set back to password.
- The network configuration will be set to DHCP and no bonding
- Volume quota will be turned off (can be set back from the volume settings wheel).
