ReadyNAS NV+ Not Recognized on Network
My ReadyNas is not recognized by any devices on my wireless network. Here are the facts:
- It is listed on my network map on my router's utility page.
- My ReadyNAS is plugged directly into my router using an ethernet cable.
- RAIDar cannot find it.
- It is not listed as being in my network when I try to map a drive.
- The Netgear/ReadyNAS multicolored icon shows up sporadically in my Windows Explorer listed under Network Locations, and from there I can browse the folders on the ReadyNAS.
- When I try to login to my ReadyNAS using a browser and the ReadyNAS IP address (192.168.1.128), I get a login prompt, but after I successfully login, all I see is a Netgear page titled "My Shares" telling me "No shares currently accessible."
- Don't know the ReadyNAS firmware version, but I'm pretty certain that it was set to automatically update.
- Windows 10.
Any help would be appreciated. Lots of home movies, pictures, and music are on there.
Thank you.

You should be going to https://192.168.1.128/admin. It's odd that it doesn't show in RAIDar, though. Maybe you are runing a version too old for Win10?
- I'll try that. Do I need to power the ReadyNAS down first, or can I just unplug the ethernet cable from the router without shutting it down?
I tried going to https://... but the behavior is the same. I'll try updating my version of RAIDar to see what that does.
UPDATE: I'm a slight idiot. I forgot about adding "admin" to the end of the IP address. When I did use "admin," I was able to get into Frontview. And once that happened, I was able to detect the ReadyNAS on my network, and map folders as network drives.However, RAIDar still does not detect it. I'm using RAIDar 4.3.8
