5.x.x.x is used by readycloud.
You can turn off the master browser in the RN102, but it requires ssh.
You need to create a file called /etc/frontview/samba/smb.conf.overrides with the line "local master = no"
To do this from the linux command line, you can type
echo "local master = no" > /etc/frontview/samba/smb.conf.overrides
Then restart the NAS.
