Thanks a lot it worked fine
Hello, I have the RN214 and tried to do the manual update but I kept getting the "unrecognized server error" when I tried to upload the image. Would you mind walking through the steps you took to manually install?
I tried uploading the arm, and the x86, both as .zips and then just the .img files and every time it immediately failed. Did you instead overwrite the files? Did you install it in a way other than through the admin page settings?
Thanks in advance

Netgear Team- Hi,
surely I downloaded the file , unzipped it and uploaded it from the admin page; as far as I can remember, I used the .img file.
Now I am not home and I can’t tell you more about it. Did you read the .readme file about direct update from older os version?Hello 77PALE77
Could you please try downloading and installing the .img file again.
Please make sure your ReadyNAS is getting proper internet connection.
Have a lovely day,

Netgear Team- Hi NiveditaP3,
I suppose your last answer was for Etarsha and not for me.
I got my install successfully about two weeks ago, and anyway I could do nothing now, as I am far from home until the end of this month😀
