If this message appears, update NAS Navigator2 to the latest version. • When you open Settings after updating to this firmware version, the page may still be displaying “Reading”. In such a case, clear the web browser cache and try again. [How to Update the Firmware] 1. Extract the downloaded installer file. 2. Execute “update”, then refer to the on-screen instructions.
