RN102 will not upgrage firmware

I got my PM from a Netgear Tech/Engineer. After a few back and forths, he remoted into my ReadyNAS and was able to force an upgrade.

If that does not resolve it, have you checked the contents of initrd.log?
Does it show that the update failed?
I have tried both manual and auto updating. Also the log shows rebooting and background task starting. No errors of any type.

Hi Tec-man,
It is very likely that you are experiencing checksum issue that is resolved in 6.4.0+. To get you on the latest firmware version we will need to look into doing this workaround here ReadyNAS OS 6: RN100/RN2120 cannot update due to invalid checksum
With out seeing your logs I would assume this is the problem. If you download your logs and look at the initrd.log file it should confirm this issue.
Let me know if this helps,

Any ideas ?

Do you have a backup of your data?
At this point, I would suggest backing up your data, doing a factory default (wipes all data, settings, everything) and trying the procedure for the problem again.
