Really will appreciate some advice about the following:
I am running Logitech Media Server Version: 7.9.1 - 1522157629 @ Fri Mar 30 12:30:30 CEST 2018. on an old but so far reliable ReadyNAS NV+ (RAIDiator 4.1.16 [1.00a043]). Serving 4 Logitech Touch devices (all are up-to-date with v7.8.0 r16754), plus SqueezeLite- X version 2.7.17 on my Dell XPS laptop, and Orange Squeeze v 2.5.2 (1500002574) with SqueezePlayer on my Samsung phone. I have been living away from my home for a work project for the last two years - recently returned. While I was away I was running LMS on a new Dell XPS laptop and one Touch device on a temporary system. I have reverted to my home network and NAS, and am trying to catch up my network infrastructure & configuration. In any case, I do not want to keep running LMS on my laptop to serve my home system. Also, since returning home I have found that the network does not seem to be as reliable as before, and I have been experiencing playback gaps or pauses. I received today a notice "A new version of Logitech Media Server is available (8.1.1 - 0).". Clicking on the link in the message gives me a "404 Not found" message. While I was trying to figure out the potential network issues that caused the LMS playback gaps/pauses, I thought I read a posting that LMS is not being supported on NetGear NV+ beyond version 9.x ... I do not have the hands-on technical expertise (or time to dig...) to try migrating a potentially failing upgrade. And, my situation is further exacerbated in that my relatively new Dell XPS laptop is running Windows 10 Pro, and I have not figured out how to get access to my network devices from the laptop, compared to Windows 7 on my previous laptop. e.g. to do something that should be very straightforward such as catching up my NAS library with music that I added on my laptop while I was away ... (It was a most frustrating experience to have Microsoft "help" with an automatic migration to my laptop ...) At this time, I believe my best way forward is to purchase and migrate to a new NAS - Windows Server based? Appreciate recommendations on how I should move forward. (Apologies if there was too much info above).
