R8000 & Readycloud Registration failed

Hi Fora,

 

I have recently updated my R8000 to firmware version V1.0.3.4_1.1.2 and figured I'd give the Readycloud a try.

So I was able to logon online and even with the app, but as soon as I try to connect my R8000 with the EXACT same username and password (please don't ask me if I'm sure 🙂 ) it gives me the following error:

 

Registration failed. Please check your user name and password and try again.

 

Anybody any ideas what I am doing wrong or what might be going on?

 

In eager anticipation of your replies

 

Serge

Hi jeffm6719,

 

Try changing your password to a simpler password. For example: Password123

Hello Fora,

 

You have posted this to ReadyNAS board. I will be moving this to the right board which is Home Networking > WiFi Routers > Nighthawk.

 

Regards,

@svanlith I was able to register it on the admin page. Please try one more time. If the problem persists, try to change your password.

 

@danntlewis Do you have the same model number?

Yes, just bought a R8000. When trying to use readycloud I just get "Registration failed. Please check your user name and password and try again." So there is still a issue...

Hi, 

I solved the issue. I got a hint in a forum that someone had the same issue and by accident solved it by removing some special character in the password. I had tried to change password a few times but always kept a special character in my password (an "&"-sign). Now I removed the "&"-sign and just used normal letters and numbers and then  it started to work. 

So...there is definitely a bug in the Netgear software.

The same problem existed with my password. I removed the $ sign from my password (changed password) and it now works!
