Updating ReadyNAS Firmware
The ReadyNAS device offers the option to upgrade the operating firmware either 
automatically using the Remote Update option, or by manually loading an update image that 
has been downloaded from the NETGEAR Web site.
Updating Direct from the NETGEAR Web Site
If the ReadyNAS has Internet access the easiest update option is the Remote option. The 
update process updates only the firmware image, and does not modify your data volume. 
Note:  
It is always a good practice to backup data - especially data that 
cannot be replaced - before you perform a firmware update. 
To use the Remote option:
1. 
Select Update from the main menu and then click the Remote screen.
2. 
Click Check for Updates to check for updates on the NETGEAR update server. 
3. 
When prompted, click Perform System Update.
After the download completes, you are prompted to reboot the system.
WARNING!
Do not click the browser Refresh button during the update 
process.
