Confussed about upgrading a RN10200 from MyNetgear.com account to ReadyCloud

Hi JennC
I had an email sometime ago from Netgear to upgrade my account which I ignored until now - when I tried to do it the instuctions on the first web page were covered up and I created an account. I think I created a NetGear Ready Cloud password from the link from the email sent to me and then to another page which wanted an account setting up. This forum accepts that password. I will try and find the exact web address of these pages if necessary.
I downloaded Readycloud setup –V1.8.1220 from the NetGear website and used that to see the NAS on my computer.
The ‘admin’ and ‘password’ worked and I logged onto the admin page – Firmware 6.2.5 and is asking if I want to upgrade. (I have not so far.)
I have put data on the NAS which is using a 4tb Red WD drive. (This data is a just copied from my harddrive as a backup.) It is currently plugged directly into the router (I am not currently using a USB cable from the NAS to the PC.)
Hope I have answered all your questions.
Many thanks
Hello MGalle,
Are you going to use ReadyCloud? ReadyCloud is for accessing your NAS shares remotely. If you are going to use it then you need to update to 6.5.0 firmware as ReadyCloud will be available to 6.5.0 and not anymore to older versions.
