Win 7 and WIN XP Browser Firefox and Internetexplorer. All with newest patches.
When Connected to my second LAN Input 192.168.2.xxx without internet acess,I receive following Messages:

But at least, after adding the exeption, I have acess to the Dashboard and I myself have acess to my shares. But The NAS ist not connected to the Internet via my computer. That seems to be correct.
When my ReadyNAS is connected to the switch of my internetconnection at first LAN input of my PC , 192.168.2.xxx too, I get the Following Message.
Error: Connection failed Firefox can not connect to the server at 192.168.2.25. The site may be temporarily down, please try again later.

This message appears in all OS and browsers.
This seems to be the result of a security issue with Netgear hardware.
Recently I put 3 netgear ProSafe 802.11g, WG 102 accesspoints into the wastebox due to similar behavior.
When I leave my ReadyNAS at my second Lan Input and connected sucessfull to the Dashboard, and than add internetaccess to that LAN2 via switch, the Dashboard goes offline.
Can anybody help me ore do I have to expose this Readynas to the wastebox.

All ReadyNAS use self-signed certificates, so you will either need to add the exception, or click through the browser warning. The connection is still encrypted, the security concern is that a man-in-the-middle attack is possible (a server that somehow gets between your client and the NAS could also use a self-signed certificate with 192.168.2.25 as it's IP address). It's not a concern on your home network, but could be if you access the NAS over the internet.
Personally I don't recommend allowing internet access for a legacy ReadyNAS anyway, since it is no longer receiving firmware updates with security patches.

Error: Connection failed
Likely the PC IP address for that LAN port is misconfigured. Another possibility is that the NAS is using DHCP, and is failing over to a different IP address when you directly connect it to the PC LAN port.
Can you give us more information on the connection path? What IP address is the PC using for that LAN port? Also, check with RAIDar, and tell us what IP address it is showing for the NAS. https://kb.netgear.com/20684/ReadyNAS-Downloads#raidar
My second LAN-Port has the IP 192.168.2.2 (without internetaccess)
With no standard Gateway and DNS server assigned.
From here I can access my ReadyNAS dashboard with warning messages and exeption agreement.
My first LAN-Port has the IP 192,168.2.3
Standard Gateway and DNS-server is my Fritzbox (Router) IP 192.168.2.1
Thats my connection to Internet and inhouse LAN and WLAN with several connected devices like TV. Sat-Receiver, Smartphones, Printer, Tablet and additional PCs.
DHCP is configured from 192.168.2.50 to 192.168.2.100.
The ReadyNAS has the fixed IP 192,168.2.25
When the ReadyNAS ist connected to this LAN, connection of Dashboard is refused without possibility for an exeption agreement. Just refused, nothing more.
Raidar 6.4.0 is working pretty fine. It shows the correct IP-adress..
The middle Button gives me access to my data in both mentioned configurations.
The admin-button opens a new browsertab with login for admin when connected to second LAN-port.
When connected withe LAN 1 192.168.2.3 the Buttton opens a new browsertab and a refused connection as explained. ( with firefox and IE)
Will there be a solution, even by overwrting some security aspects?
The remote access to my Router and though the TeadyNAS ist managed with AVM Myfritz, but does not work now. Because I cannot access my Dashboard in configuration2 (with InternetLAN) I can not verify if the ReadyNAS has internet access.

This is one I haven't seen before.
One way to verify internet access is to download the log zip file when the NAS is directly connected to the PC. Then search system.log in the zip file for NTP time sync messages. If the time is being synced, then the NAS is connected to the internet.
I don't own an OS 5 NAS, so I don't know the format of the NTP message in the log.exactly what format the NTP message will use. Some ReadyNAS use this format:
ntpdate[17233]: step time server x.x.x.x offset 0.250609 sec
Others use
ntp: adjust (slew): -0.002835 sec
On the main problem - can you reach the NAS admin page using a different device (another PC, or maybe a phone)? Just browse to http://192.168.2.25/admin in the devices browser. Alternatively, try disabling the second (192.168.2.2) LAN port, and see if the behavior changes.
Do you have internet security software enabled on the PC?
After several shutdowns and restarts the device works normally again.Other cable connections were chosen. I can not reproduce the malfunction. Thank you very much.
