ReadyNAS 102 NIC Not Activating on Isolated Private LAN
Workhorse RN102 was recently moved to a new network with a new subnet. RN102 had been previously configured with static IP b/c, at the time, the (antique) router fw wasn't supporting assigning IPs t...
Yes, I can't change the subnet of the router to match the RN b/c the ISP router grabbed that subnet and has but a single port and no wifi.
I'll try the reset - I figured that would probably be the outcome - but I was hesitant to try the reset and risk the data.
Side question - preparing for a worse-case scenario, does the RN write to disk using a proprietary format?
Thanks!

If the LinkSys is a "green" router (which adjusts signal strength according to perceived cable length and interference), that may be the issue. BUT, it typically indicates that the NIC in the NAS has also been damaged in some way, just not completely dead yet.
The file format on the ReadyNAS is not proprietary, but it is atypical. It uses the BTRFS file system on top of MDADM RAID. These can be added to any Linux system. There are also experimental drivers available for Windows.
