The device is not set up to accept connections from port "The File and printer sharing (SMB)"

Hi!

About two weeks ago I had a blackout at my apartment and when I got home and turned everything on again I was met by this message when I tried to connect to my NAS:

At first I tried to google after a sollution to my problem but with no luck. So far I have tried:
1. Turning the computer and NAS on and off again, but the problem persists...

2. Checked if SMB 1.0 is enabled. It is!

3. Turned the Firewall of to see if that was the cause of the problem. No change...

 

Tried using RAIDar and lo and behold it found my NAS, could locate it and tell me if it's healthy (it is). BUT when I try:

- Clicking on Browse, it just sends me to my Documents page

- Clicking on Admin Page, I get this message:

 

So now I turn to you guys to see if anyone has a sollution to my problem.

BTW, my computer OS is Windows 10 for reference.

 

Help me NetGear Community, you are my only hope!

      Firmware: 4.1.16

      It only says ReadyNAS Duo on the front panel

        Ok.  Then you have the original Duo (v1), and not the v2.  The firmware is the final release.

         

        Do you have a backup of the files, or do you need to offload them for safety?
