ReadyNas Duo TRY to admin the router
I have a ReadyNas Duo connected to a Netgear DGN2200M router. In the router log I find several “[Admin login failure] from source 192.168.0.107”. This is the IP of the nas. Why does it attempt to access to the router as an administrator? I have no third-parts add-on installed. What does it mean? Is it serious?

- Do you have readynas remote enabled?
It's probably that if it is on. - Yes readynas remote is enabled. But why does it want to manage the router? Maybe it's only an error il the log. I think it's not important. Thank you for the answer.
- I don't know why the router displays the message. Its clearly remote, you could check by turning it off temporarily.
- I'm not convinced that it is remote, but disabling the service would let you know for sure.
