Unable to access Local Admin Page
I encountered the problem of not being able to access using ReadyCLOUD (which is now known to have been caused by a Netgear issue) and after logging into the Admin Page I did turn ReadyCLOUD back on ...

Rebooting (by taking power off) seemed to solve my problem.

I have the same problem after rejoining the readyCloud as per instructions in the email from Netgear April 20, 2017. I tried typing ip on the browser and get the Forbidden message. I also tried https://192.x.x.x/fwbroker, I get the similar message "You don't have permission to access /fwbroker on this server". The Drive seems to be working find. I can see the shares.
What do I do?

That is what I had to do and it seems to have cleared the hung service. Wish there was a better way to restart services although that would probably entail ssh into the box which adds other issues.

Simply enabling SSH shouldn't create any problems - it depends on what you've done with it.
There should be no problem if you use it simply to check status and shut down. If you start changing stuff, then Netgear will probably insist on a factory reset before they provide support.
