If your NAS is running V4.1.x software, then it is a V1, not a V2. Netgear had used a small "V2" on a sticker to designate a very small hardware change, then later re-used "V2" for an entirely different NAS. A true V2 says so on the front, not just on a sticker. Only true V2 units can run OS5.x.
You can download OS 4.1.16 (the last update for your NAS) at RAIDiator-Version-4-1-16-Sparc and do a local update.
SSH is not enabled by default. You can enable it with the add-on available at Add-ons-for-RAIDiator-4-1-3-Sparc .

I tried so many different ways to get the firmware updated and it wouldn't have occurred to me to use the Sparc firmware instead of the ARM until I read this post.
