RN102 can't access admin page after upgrade FW
After upgrading FW to 6.5.1 admin page became inaccesible, neither from IE not from Raidar. Admin password in Raidar doesn't accepted (but was actual before upgrade and didn't change). What is a way ...

An OS reinstall will reset the NAS to use DHCP and also reset the admin password to "password" Other settings won't change.

Raidar declines both my admin pswd and "password" too, after re-installation OS. And I can't connect to admin page - "this page can't be displayed" reported by IE11.

Hi snstak,
If you can confirm that you've done the OS reinstall procedure correctly, I suggest that you connect your ReadyNAS system to one of your PCs via LAN and test if you can access the admin page.
Hope this helps!
Kind regards,

Hi BrianL,
Yes, I've done OS re-installation according to manual /disk 2 LED only lighting by BackUp button selection is done and Reset button for confirm boot selection mode/. I've done that procedure several time without result. It actually changes psw for root user to "password", as I see in PuTTY connection, but admin user psw doesn't change to default /"password"/, so under Raidar ReadyNAS declines default psw. And admin page still inaccessible in spite of ReadyNAS obtained IP in the range of my network router settings. Under PuTTY I can change root psw to any I want, system cofirms that and I see that it actually changed, but admin psw doesn't change in spite of system confirms that psw is successfully changed.
Thanks and regards

BrianL,
Could say what is set as shell for admin user, as I see in passwd file content in my case it is "/bin/false". May it be the reason of such strange behaviour of my ReadyNAS?
Thanks and ragards
