Recover the Administrator Password Using an OS Reinstall Reboot
This process does not remove data from the system, but resets the administrator user name
and password to the factory defaults. The default credentials to log in to the local admin page
are as follows:
• User name: admin
• Password: password
Both user name and password are case-sensitive.
For information about how to perform an OS reinstall reboot on the storage system, see the
hardware manual for your system, which is available at
http://support.netgear.com/product/ReadyNAS-OS6.
Shut Down or Restart the System
Use the Power icon at the top right corner of the local admin page to gracefully shut down or
restart the ReadyNAS.
