ReadyNAS 104 LCD Error: "Cannot connect discovery server"
It seems to work fine, but this cosmetic problem covers up the name/IP on the LCD and keeps the LCD lit which will burn it out sooner than would be ideal. This is on a ReadyNAS 104 running firmware 6.1.3 (the most current as of this posting), with 2x1TB WD10EFRX drives. SMB and AFP have been disabled. A static IP has been set and the time set manually. NFS has been enabled, with home directories disabled.
It only shows up on the LCD, not in the system log. Any ideas on where to look for this? My suspicion is that there's some internal dependency triggered by the services I've disabled since for my use this will be an NFS-only server. Are there additional logs available on the ReadyNAS 104?

- Hi Stephen,
When I click "Check for Updates" a small pop-up window titled "Update System Manager" appears with the following message "Your system is currently running the latest firmware. Your system does not need a firmware update". And it's rather odd that I was not receiving this message a few hours ago when the NAS was initially connected & setup out of the box. So from here I decided to check https://readycloud.netgear.com website again, followed by clicking on "Discover" and to my bewilderment :shock: has now started working, with "Manage" now displayed. To double check WAN connectivity, I was able to successfully download "Anti-Virus Plus" from the "Apps" section of the web interface.
I did however have the NAS shutdown overnight while I was asleep. Perhaps a cold boot rather than a warm boot did the trick?
So in conclusion, I'm really not 100% sure why it has suddenly started to work, but nevertheless all is now well and thanks for the contributions made by our community members. :)
Regards,
James.
