Had the same problem - Do you have SSH access? If so, your unit isn't "technically" a brick. You should downgrade right away to 6.10.4. (I did that and the problem went away). Contrary to other posts - it has NOTHING to do with the browser version you're using to access the unit - it happens on all browsers - it's a flaw in frontview.
Here are the instructions for the ARM unit (RN102):NB: (you MUST be ssh'ed in as 'root'):
cd /root wget http://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/READYNAS-100/ReadyNASOS-6.10.4-arm.zip unzip ReadyNASOS-6.10.4-arm.zip echo /root/ReadyNASOS-6.10.4-arm.img > /etc/.flash_update reboot
There is a hotfix that needs to be applied to that release and it will automatically be applied if your NAS settings permit hotfixes to be automatically applied... otherwise - do as you see fit.
Just ignore any further updates to 6.10.5 until they get their act together.

I too had this issue, strangely enough for my setup i used the 'admin' log in and the page is completely fine !
However other accounts all suffer from this?
My setup is a 4 drive 104 and again i am unsure if it particularly related but after the upgrade i did have a drive completely degrade, putting it in my pc prevents that from booting too strangly enough. I will be investigating this further so will get back to you guys if anything shows up and should be replacing this drive before the week is out .

In one of the other threads on this issue, it has been reported that Netgear has been able to duplicate the problem. So, we can hope that an update or hotfix is forthcoming.
