ReadyNAS 104 - could not access after bonding network adapters
Hello,
I re-configured my ReadyNAS 104 (4x4TB drives). I set its network adapters to bond (adaptive load balancing). After rebooting the NAS, I can no longer access it. The display on the NAS shows its old IP address at 192.168.0.7 but I try scanning my network for that IP address and it would not show up. Tried powering down the NAS and powering it up again many times. Also tried replacing and switching network cables. Still the NAS will not show up in the network even if it says it is at 192.168.0.7. And what's weird is that everytime I reboot the NAS, it still sends out email to me saying it is powering down. Please help.

You could do an OS Re-install which would reset the network settings for your NICs and the admin password. See How do I access the boot menu on my ReadyNAS 104, 204, 214, or 314?
Why did you decide to use NIC Bonding?

The first thing to try is to remove one of the ethernet cables and reboot.
