Hey All.
I recently upgraded my legacy device from 4.2.27 to 6.2.4 - I won't provide feedback on that process within this forum. Needless to say, 6.2.4 effectively reinvented the Ultra 6. Much easier and better to use. It is a testament to Netgear for unofficially supporting legacy devices.
The following is a list of things I have noted from my experience with the new version:.
Mobile device web view is horrendous. Navigating on a phone is horrible with poor scaling and issues with frames. This should be improved.
Small issue, but landing page app-installed icons don't work when used on non-standard port (I have a high range port >40000 to connect to secure web interface. Inspecting the elements which make up the links to the icons I see: <img width="64" height="64" src="https://ipaddresshidden/apps/logo/lms.png" id="ext-gen431"> (ip address hidden) with no reference to the port number needed to connect... should this not be ipaddresshidden:40000 or similar (in my instance).
Dropbox backup-only is a bit disappointing. I have 3 PCs, a laptop and 2 mobile devices which would benefit for being LAN sync'd, rather than the Readynas being a one-way only "send backup to Dropbox" device. RNXtras paid addon holds promise, except it is broken on install with "bad config" and won't spawn a HTTP config page with missing URL (I'll seek support from him)
Thanks!
