Was working... now it is not: MacBookPro TimeMachine Backup to RN316

This was working and quit...  possibly near the time of the firmware upgrade of 6.5.0.  My MacBook Pro is no longer able to find the TimeMachine on my RN316.  I have attempted to deselect the current the TimeMachine backup and re-initialize but I keep getting an error that the userID & password is invalid.

 

At this point I would be willing to completely delete the current TimeMachine back up image from the RN316 (WITHOUT REBUILDING ALL OF THE OTHER ACTIVE WORKING SHARES ON THE DEVICE) and starting a new TimeMachine back-up.  All help is appreciated.

Model: RN31661D|ReadyNAS 316 6-Bay

Hello Weaverita,

 

What userID and password were you entering?
