You don't have an OS-6 system, so you shouldn't be using those instructions.

And to further empahsize, you also don't have a system that can be updated to OS6. If you try using the OS4.2 to OS6 upgrade instructions, you'll brick the NAS. The NVX is a 32-bit system and OS6 only runs on 64-bit systems. But the upgrade process won't warn you of that (it assumes you've read the instructions).
And since you have an older OS4.2 system,. you also don't have ReadyCloud to discover the NAS in that way ot to use it for remote access.
Thanks Sandshard, good tips!
