Warning

Upgrading from up to (and including) 1.00.05 to 1.00.06.5

If you have firmware <= 1.00.05 and you have installed modules from the list below, then before you upgrade from firmware version <= 1.00.05 to a firmware 1.00.06.5 it is mandatory that you rename the directory /raid/data/module, e.g. with this command:

mv /raid/data/module /raid/data/module.save

If it is already too late and you've upgraded your N5200 with a firmware >= 1.00.06.5, then install the RENMOD module. You can use this module with all 1.00.XX versions, as it just renames /raid/data/module to /raid/data/modules.save.

You can find more information on this issue HERE.

Upgrading from any version after (and including) 1.00.06.5

Before upgrading firmware uninstall the IMGDUP module if you have installed it. After a successful upgrade you can install it again. Take care over potential incompatibilities that might arise from firmware upgrade changes to /img. As the IMGDUP saves all changed files in /raid/data/module/backup/IMGDUP on uninstall and restores these files on reinstall.

Modules for N5200 firmware >= 1.00.06

Starting with firmware version 1.00.06 a new module framework is available. It is possible to install and uninstall modules. Installed modules can be enabled and disabled. For installed modules there is a module page describing the properties of the module and for enabled modules there is a property page where module specific properties can be set or tasks like backup/restore of the module configuration can be executed.

All of these modules are only working with firmware 1.00.06 (currently only the BETA version 1.00.06.5 is available and wherever 1.00.06 is mentioned it applies to 1.00.06.5 too).
