OK, success! I finally got this to work on all my machines. Here is what I did after searching for similar issues on the forum (in the ReadyNAS for Business section)
In cmd window:
confirm NAS is visible via ping on both \\nasname and \\nasipaddress
type "net use * /delete" will remove any existing connections - wasn't an issue in my case
type "net use t: \\nasname\data /user:admin password" this maps the NAS to t: drive KEEP TRACK OF THE DIRECTION OF THE SLASHES
Invoke windows credential manager (via search in Settings)
create new generic Windows Credential:
\\nasname\data
login: admin

In Windows Explorer:
Delete the old quick access link to "nasname" on the left bar
type in \\nasname in the address ribbon - Works!
Create new Quick Access link
Thanks for all your suggestions. Most of the ideas here are in other ReadyNAS threads, if you start looking for the correct error messages (0x80004000 and 0x80070035).
I don't use a very long email address (12 characters long, @ gmail dot com)
