6.4.2 Update missing
It seems like the 6.4.2 update is no longer available. Will it come back later, or will there be a 6.4.3 anytime soon?
This would suggest that your NAS is having problems connecting to the internet for some reason.
Have you changed the network settings on the NAS recently?

Are you saying that "check for updates" didn't find it? Or that you couldn't find a manual download?
It still is available: http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/30263/~/readynas-os-version-6.4.2

The "check for updates" didn't find it. Earlier a popup also showed up when i logged in to the Admin web, but that also doesn't happen anymore.

What firmware are you running now?
Does check-for-update say you have the most recent firmware, or is it not finding the update server?
- lundmiloLuminaryI am currently running 6.4.1. It doesn't return any error message. It is not that I need the update I was just wondering why it had stopped telling my that there is a newer firmware available.

I could connect to the NAS using the ReadyCloud app on my phone and se the contents of the folders, so it actually looks like there was connection from the NAS to the internet.
I just rebooted the NAS and now the popup shows up again telling me that there is an update available.
I am downloading right now.
