Where is readynas OS 6.5????????

I've gotten the same e-mail from netgear about five times over the past three to four weeks.  It tells me that they are changing all accounts to a MyNetgear account, and that if I want to continue using readycloud, I need to make the conversion.  Unfortunately, everytime I attempt to "do as instructed", I run into an impasse.  The website DOESN'T work the way they say it should.

Apparently(?)  I have converted my old account, because now I automatically log in to a "MyNetgear.com" account.  Then I open Readycloud, expecting to see the "migration" forms or checkboxes, but there is nothing there! Just the usual readycloud entry form.  I have checked EVERYWHERE on that form, and there is no consolidation options for the accounts, and no ability to upgrade my nas's to OS 6.0.  All I can  say is "You're about seven weeks late, if this was an April fools' joke", and if it wasn't, you need to hire a new quality assurance staff...., if you even know what that is!

    The email indicated that the change will be happening in early May. I agree that it could have made it clearer that it is an advanced notification and that 6.5.0 is not yet available.

        That depends how you define "early" (which is subjective). In some places on the community I have been saying early/mid May.

        Anyway as always we will release firmware updates when they are ready rather than sticking to the timing we plan no matter what.
