RNDP400u stuck at 99% after upgrade from firmware 4 to 6
Attempting to upgrade firmware from Radiator 4.19 using R4toR6_6.9.5.bin. Device does not boot past 99%. Is it possible to restore the original firmware? Any options to salvage the device? I appreciate any input towards resolving this issue.
Thanks for your reply. That is exactly what I tried. The initial boot got stuck at 94%, the factory reset with 1 disk got to 99%. I also tried an OS reinstall with similar results. All get stuck somewhere in the 90% range on upnphttpd.service.

Maybe first try a single disk (doing a factory install), and see if that boots.

You can't revert using the normal method, since the system doesn't boot.
You can try reverting using the USB recovery tool. Note you don't use the one for OS 6. https://kb.netgear.com/30267/RAIDiator-4-2-USB-Recovery-Tool
