Firmware DSM 3.1 BETA

[Björn]

Belangrijke opmerking: BETA firmware wordt uitgebracht om bugs te vinden. Niet alleen betekent dit dat er dus bugs in de software kunnen zitten, maar het betekent dus ook dat het de bedoeling is dat bugs aan Synology gemeld worden. Dit forum wordt niet door Synology gelezen, dus het hier melden van bugs is niet hetzelfde als ze aan Synology melden.
