Thanks PeterW. I suppose if I post enough questions I could become a
valued senior member like pski. I just want the stuff to work without
the need to research the effects of monolithic upgrades on 3 different
products.  The better solution is to put individual product update under
user control. This could require changes to the server. It is probably
hard-coded to specific dependencies. And it is better fix the what you
have before upping the ante with new and probably buggy features.

I still don't understand why they say this:

Upgrade to 7.4.0 Required 
Required for SqueezeNetwork Users 
If you connect your players to SqueezeNetwork at any time, then you
must upgrade to 7.4. 

when the firmware is switching all by itself. Apparently the firmware
is pushed from the website when a user has not installed 7.4.

Either I am missing something or the document linked below from which
the above is copied is inaccurate and misleading. 'Must' is different
than 'we recommend'.
