Uncontrolled power-ups with RN Pro after Raidar Upg.
After upgrading my ReadyNAS Pro to RAIDiator 4.2.12, I now experience uncontrolled system starts.
System now boots up uncontrolled at least three times a day when turned off.
Of course, scheduler an WoL are disabled.
Any ideas what that might be caused from?
Thanx & Best Regards

- beisser1Tutori always power down with the button :) and 4.2.11 cures the problem entirely.
first i thought it might be my betaunit again, like the last time when i had problems.
but reading the same stuff from other users proves otherwise :) - stgadmAspirant

In my case, it doesn't seem to matter how the ReadyNAS is powered off (I tried both from FrontView and using the power button). I experience the random power up (sometimes a few minutes after the shutdown, sometimes a few hours later). It also doesn't matter whether the network cables are plugged in or not. So it's definitely not WOL that's causing this.
I started seeing there random power-ups after the upgrade to 4.2.11. Netgear support asked me to upgrade to 4.2.12 to see if that would fix the issue and it hasn't. I might try reverting back to 4.2.11 since some folks have had better luck with that version. (Netgear support has also suggested upgrading to 4.2.13beta ...)
I also have WOL and the schedule DISABLED.
Is the downgrade to 4.2.11 the best fix for this issue so far?
Thanks. - BigLeagueAspirantI installed 4.2.13 hoping this would fix the uncontrolled power ups on my readynas pro but it didn't. Performed a factory default after backing up and still the same problem with 4.2.13. I guess im stuck with using 4.2.11.
- laksmkkAspirantSame things happened to me.
Power Schedule was disable and no configured.
WOL was disable as well.
I had to downgrade to 4.2.11 and now I have no problems
-Thanks - BigLeagueAspirantAfter some experimenting with firmware 4.2.13 installed, my random power ON's after a scheduled power off at 22:00 hrs on my ReadyNas Pro and 3200 so far stopped for the first time since the firmware upgrade after zeroing out the power ON's and clicking apply, then entering the scheduled ON time again and enabling WOL. Previously, WOL was always disabled and after a scheduled shutdown, a few minutes later it would just start to power on by itself and boot up. The only fix was to downgrade to firmware 4.2.11 which was very stable with the power schedule. Can the Jedi Guru's look into the relationship with the WOL and the scheduled power off's to find and fix the bug in the firmware and hopefully release a new update with the fix.
- beisser1Tutori am still having the uncontrolled powerups on my pro even after a factory default.
they totally vanish if i go back to 4.2.11. beisser wrote: i am still having the uncontrolled powerups on my pro even after a factory default.

Try taking off the both network cables and see if it's keep powering up.- beisser1Tutor

you think the nas is reacting to something on my network? good idea. i have wol disabled though.
but i will try that anyway :) - beisser1Tutorits been several hours now since i unplugged the network cables and so far the pro hasnt booted up..
lets continue to monitor..
but what could bring the device to boot up? - I have no idea. I have two units and one unit is acting like that. I just reconnect two network cables and give a try again.
