Good question - I bought the 202 in Jan 2016, so it is hardly cutting
edge! But it is still being offered updates from Netgear and runs the
latest Readynas OS I think. Doing a bit of research I seem to remember
that the proper Readynas app (super_poussin??) disappeared after
Readynas OS 6.6 and never came back. It was a pain to manually install
it after that but I managed to do it (with the help of this forum!) with
the intention of never doing it again if at all possible!

It might be that I can update Readynas OS to the latest and nothing will
be impacted, but I have a feeling that I'll have to re-install LMS etc.
and that would not be popular!

Thanks for the heads-up about pi-hole, I set it up but noticed it was
blocking everything under the sun and breaking every website we normally
use to I put it back on the shelf until I had time to look at it again
properly (who knows when that would be!). What I might do is forget
about that and reformat it with piCorePlayer, enable LMS and if I get it
working I can switch the players over to that and then do what I like
with my Readynas safe in the knowledge that it is not a single point of
failure for LMS anymore :-)

Having said that if anyone knows of a simple way to solve the problems
I'm seeing above, I'd be up for solving them!
