Updating Readynas Pro to Latest Firmware
I am currently running OS 6.6.1 on a legacy readynas Pro 6. When I do a check for updates it tells me that I am already running the latest firmware even through firmware viersion 6.7.1 is available....

I thought that the legacy NAS units that were running firmware 6 and above were supposed to update the same as newer NAS units.
It does.
Is the Pro using a static IP address, or is it configured with DHCP?
It is DHCP.
Then it is odd that the pro isn't seeing the update. Perhaps wait a day and try again. I suspect there is a cluster of servers, and they might not be always in step.
None of my legacy units are showing the 6.7.1 update, either. The ones running 6.6.0 are showing the 6.6.1 update. If it's somehow done in "waves", how does it differentiate? I updated my sandbox unit manually to 6.7.1.
I updated the unit manually and it seems to be working.
One thing I did notice is when loging into the admin screen all units still show version 6.6.1 but after you get logged in it shows 6.7.1.
Must be a screen that someone forgot to change when creating the new firmware.
