ReadyNas 312 Boot Problem
I am using my ReadyNas to automatically backup my family MacBooks at home (and for additional storage). It has 2x WD Black 4TB 3.5" HDD (7200rpm) discs in. Typically it just sits quietly on my networ...
Thanks for such a prompt response Stephen. Okay... I have installed the new RAIDar. The status is saying: Management Service is Offline. The firmware is: 6.9.3. My problem now is that for me to get the logs etc. it needs my usual login credentials, which for some reason it is no longer accepting! I am definietely entering the correct credentials. Is there a limit to how many times I can enter them i.e. could it have locked me out? Or by moving to the new RAIDar, is there a new default password (I have tried admin/ password). Everything I enter just tells me Not a Valid Username or Password???
The default admin password is still password.
One option is to try an OS reinstall from the boot menu - see pages 65-67 here: http://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/READYNAS-100/ReadyNAS_%20OS6_Desktop_HM_EN.pdf
That should
- partially reinstall the OS. Data shouldn't be affected (neither should most settings).
- The network will be reset to DHCP (automatic) with bonding off
- Admin password will be reset to password
- Volume quota (on the volume settings wheel) will be turned off
If that doesn't restore admin access, you should consider using paid support (my.netgear.com).
