Server online (VPN disconnected)

[grantwolf]

A quick google search tells me this is a recurring issue and I haven't seen a viable solution yet, but figure I'd put it out there myself:

I remote connect to our NAS.  I've had very few issues in the past year, but suddenly I'm getting a VPN Disconnected message.  I can access the NAS through the web interface just fine.  I've restarted the readycloud app, I've uninstalled and reinstalled, I've rebooted the NAS, I've updated the firmware (6.10.8), and no matter what, I can no longer connect.

Anyone have the magic bullet on this one?

Have you read this:

Given that Netgear is shutting down the service. I suggest that you just look for an alternative now, instead of investing time trying to get it back online.

Dang...no, I didn't see that.  Thanks for the head's up.

Looks like I have until July, so if there is an easy solution, it would buy me a few months to figure out next steps.

Thanks!

ZeroTier is one option - it can be installed on the NAS.

If you have a router with OpenVPN installed (for example a Netgear Orbi or Nighthawk), then that would be another option.
