6.2 is available! Yay! Questions...
So, I see that OS 6.2 is not available for our devices (I have a 516)... Is there any type of documentation beyond the release notes? I clicked on a file I'd like to share, and don't see a link option in the web-gui. I'm probably overlooking something very simple.
Second question is more to do with the actual workings of the ReadyNAS. I recently performed a factory reset (a few days ago) and was just about to start loading my data into the machine when I got the notification for 6.2. Is there any benefit to doing the factory reset again, since I've already got everything backed up and ready to go? or since it was clean when I updated, no apps, no data, no nothing... should I be fine just leaving it as the updated 6.1.9 to 6.2 with no factory reset?
Those questions asked... Everything is looking awesome in 6.2 thus far!

- x219cLuminaryStrangely, I was only encountering the problem from outside my network. I'm guessing somewhere the code changed and is now caught by my companies web filter or something. I would get the Readynas 6.2 splash screen, then nothing... It just sits there. When I switch to https, it works, however. Maybe try that?
