I probably got the same Email. However, I'm not sure if my mail is legit. When logging into the NAS, there is no Update Notification. Ok, there is no final version, so this is normal. When opening content.netgear.com (not over the link) the site lookes **bleep**ty. Ok, this is because I use noscript and digitalrivercontent.net isn't on my whitelist. But if I allow all scripts, the site still looks like some Homepage that just wants my Login-Data. When openging the ssl-version https://content.netgear.com the site uses a certificate from bluehornet.com. This seems to be some Email Marketing provider. Since bluehornet also send the email, this might be (in my opinion), some **bleep**ty but legit update-notificaiton. Or a phishing attack. So, what is it?
