Unable to connect to Admin Page on RN2120 after firmware 6.7.5 upgrade
Hello all, I have a NetGear ReadyNAS 2120 which has never missed a beat until last week when I upgraded the firmware to 6.7.5 (latest). The unit rebooted as normal however after I was unable ...

You should be able to boot up the unit with three working disks (assuming XRAID or a flexraid mode with redundancy).
Your data is of course not protected until you replace the failed one.
Was the drive provided by Netgear? Or are the RMA comments about the NAS itself?

Also updated to this version of the OS and have the same lack of connection to the admin page. Still can access the shares and (hopefully) all the files on them via a mapping to the fixed IP but no browser, telnet or SSH access can be made.
Display panel correctly shows correct (fixed IP) on start-up 192.168... but before any access can be attempted flicks to a random 169.254.. .one. Tried a direct connection via crossover cable but attempting to use IP address in either range is met with the same response as when connected via router.
Could login before firmware update, wishing I done my monthly off-line backups before accepting the firm patch!

Can the Raidar software utility detect the NAS on the network? Can you provide us a copy of the logs, you may use web sharing website like wikisend and just PM the download link.

RAIDar much like Readycloud can see the device and can even browse but not access it. It two reports two IP addresses, the device was originally set up to combine both ports to one address! After some time it eventually downloaded the logs :

My guess is that the 192 address is valid, and the 169 address is not. You might want to disconnect the NIC that is using the 169 address.
What apps were installed? Was PHP one of them?
Also, does https://192.168.1.66/fwbroker respond?
