    Hi atai1960,

     

    You can do an OS reinstall on the NAS. This will reset some settings to default, such as Internet protocol settings and the administrator password. You may check this KB article for the steps on how to access the boot menu and select the OS reinstall option.

     

    The default credentials of the RN104 is admin for the username and password for the password.

      I can now log in on the admin page but I still not able to configure and map the network drive on my pc.

      It still ask me the user name and password but when I enter the new credentials it say are wrong
