Upgrade firmware

Hello, Recently the new firmware for the readynas duo v2 was released. Today I wanted to update using dashboard. Sadly when accessing the dashboard it doesn't get further than the loadingpage. I'm wondering is there a way to do a firmware update without using the dasboard or are there other ways to fix this? Ferdi Ps: if you need extra info, just ask :)

Hi Ferdi

You know, the exact same thing happened to me when I was upgrading my NAS Duo V2 firmware from 5.3.8 to 5.3.9, btw my browser is Opera 12.16, and all I did was close down my browser.

About 45 minutes later I got a "System Update Status" email from my NAS with the following message:

Your ReadyNAS device has been updated with a new firmware image. (RAIDiator-arm-5.3.9)

You see, I got no indication from my browser that anything was happening and, to tell you the truth, I thought something had gone wrong so I decided to try again letter, but as I said above I got the System Update email.

It seems that someone at Netgear forgot to include an advisory message with the update.
