Just installed the HW version, it says under the Plex Media Server:

NTP time is not ready. Make sure that your NTP server is ok.

Never hard that message before, how to fix it?

But what is current time now in your R9000? Is it OK?

Nevermind, now the error message about the time is now fixed but now I get this:

Plex has some issues, please click Apply button to enable the Plex again.

If I hit Apply, then the message goes away then comes back after a few seconds

It happens sometime after flashing new firmware having old version of Plex already installed:

Hello Voxel
I saw that you added the option "11AD FW log collect", what is it?
Also do you know what the option add by netgear "Enable 11k" mean ?
Thank !

I just reset the router to factory settings and now the error message is gone.

This firmware is the best so far. Netgear are really disappointing at releasing firmware updates and your firmwares come to the rescue.

Info for Entware users: Entware is upgraded. It is enough to run:

/opt/bin/opkg update
/opt/bin/opkg upgrade

to upgrade your version.
