SMB1/2 access problems
Hi all,
A few months ago I had some problems with the SMB1.0 problem after some Microsoft updates and I found some threads on here advising a few things here : https://community.netgear.com/t5...

Did Microsoft do something to allow backward compatibility with smb1?
On most Win10 systems you can simply go into "turn windows features on or off" and enable the SMB 1.0 clients.
Also, in some systems it will keep SMB 1.0 enabled until it hasn't been used for a while (3 months I think).
Hi,
Yes I did see this when I was turning on the nfs client again and also ticked smb1 cleant as well.
All's well for now, but I think I will go ahead with the conversion to OS6 if it's just a matter of copy out, factory reset (and select os6) and copy back. I assume that it should all work seamlessly after that?
Cheers,
Steve

Many thanks, I've updated the bios, just need to backup all the data onto usb drive, there's > 1TB of data so will take some time.
Cheers,
Steve
Note that whilst updating the BIOS it is important not to interrupt power to the NAS. It's not essential to update the BIOS on your system and if you have the Pro 6 you should already have the latest BIOS dated 07/26/2010.
The add-on doesn't check to see if you have the latest BIOS already installed.
