i have a readynas 102,firmware 6.4.0,when i click on locate its supposed to make the lights blink and it doe`s not.have i the latest firmware?
when i click on admin,it comes up with user/pass login,when i put it in it says no login has been set for this account,so i cannot log into my ready nas,i cannot even go into set up in raidar,is their any other way i can log into my nas box
Have you tried using the default username and password, which is admin and password?
The firmware of your NAS is actually out of date. The latest firmware is already on 6.9.3. You may want to update the firmware to the latest once you are able to login to the admin page. Please note that for RN102, you must not be update directly to 6.9.x from 6.3.x or older firmware. The NAS must first be updated to either 6.2.5 or 6.3.5 then to 6.5.2 and then onto 6.9.x.
sorry,the default user/pass does not work.what about,if i reinstall the os ,is there a way so i don`t loose my data .as i would do with a factory reset,the only thing i can do is browse my folders..i would hate to loose data
You will not lose your data when you do an OS re-install. It only resets some settings on your NAS, such as Internet protocol settings and the administrator password, to defaults. Please check this link for the steps on how to access the boot menu and select the OS reinstall option.
You have to press the reset button until the Power button LED, USB and backup status LED, disk 1 LED, and disk 2 LED light are on. Disk 2 LED should still be lit even if there is no disk inserted on bay 2. Then, you have to press the backup button to scroll through the boot mode option. You may just refer to the LED pattern for each boot mode that is shown on the KB article that I have provided.
im sorry for being a pain.i have heath issues at the mo,plus a bit thick,ive tried the reset function with the lights on the front and the paper clip
after all the lights have lit and i release the reset button,do i press the backup button till the number 2 is lit on the front only to reinstall the os only so it does not delete the data off hd

No worries. You may just keep us posted if the OS reinstall fixes the issue or not.
i have neve had a chance to try it at the moment,i have kust got out of hospital after oppo.when im up and around i shall try it.should be before the weekend
Hey John, I hate to butt into this issue but once in the grub menu and I have selected to perform an OS reset have you ever seen that once the system starts all that's left on the screen it s a blinking cursor? Actually when I select any of the options factory reset or technical information they all produce just a blinking cursor. Thanks
hi john,after serching through paper work i found the readynas box with my login and password,so it looks like i have sorted at the moment,thank you for all the chaps that helped.
It is good to know that you were able to find the login and password for your NAS. Feel free to post here in the Community if you need help again with your NAS or if you want to share something that might help the other members as well.
