From your description, I would have guessed that it is the +5VSB (5 volt standby) power that's the issue. But you say all pins have the right voltages. Still, if you have a stanbdard ATX supply available, you may want to try connecting it externally and see if that fixes the issue.
+5VSB powers the LAN circuit (for WoL) and the turn-on circuit.

I contacted Netgear Austria (Channel Manager), but until now there is no solution; I'm waiting for an answer.

Ultimate advice from Netgear-support was, to buy a new Readynas. Obviously it is a hardware failure and out of the warranty-period they will not repair my device, not even on my own costs.
This is very disappointing andyou have to consider in case of buying a new netgear-device.
Thanks to all for your efforts

There is advice on the community as to how to replace the PSU at your own risk. That sounds like the most likely component to be at fault.
Unfortunately it is not practical for us to do out of warranty hardware repairs.
