wrong login credentials?

Hi all,

Unfortunately running into problems while setting up my ReadyNas 102.

Followed instructions for setup and get as far as "discovery", which doesn't work.

Onward to the second option by Raidar I do get an IP adress/admin page which I am unable to login to, it won't accept the default login credentials.

I'm not sure what to do next, any suggestions are appreciated.
Tnx in advance

    It seems strange that a new setup wouldn't accept to the default credentials.  You tried the URL I gave above?

     

    Doing either a factory default or an OS reinstall from the boot menu should reset the credential back to admin/password.

      Hi KleintjePils,

       

      Welcome to the Community!

       

      You may try doing an OS re-install so the admin credentials will go back to default. You may visit this link for the procedure on how to access the boot menu and select the OS re-install.

        Hi John,

        Thanks for your answer. However, I can't even get to the setup of the Netgear, so I have no OS installed yet...
        I'm wondering if a factory default boot would do the trick?
        Thnx in advance
