  4. For Journal system+ GUID partition table, support Time Machine backup size up to 500 GB.
      
• Traffic meter - Traffic volume control is not accurate due to sampling rate. It may exceed the limit.
  Workaround: Set a proper number in “Mbytes before the monthly limit is reached” in the traffic control.

   Important Note:

• The upgrade process is completed when the on screen progress bar completes. If power LED light turns amber and blinking, power cycle the router to complete the upgrade.
• If the upgrade progress bar on web GUI doesn't display correctly during firmware upgrade, you can still check the status using Power LED. The Power LED should be blinking (amber) during firmware upgrade.  After firmware upgrade is done and boots up the system, it changes to steady amber color.
  Please DO NOT power off or reboot the device during firmware upgrade, otherwise, it  may result to a corrupt firmware and cause the device not to work.

Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11 specifications. Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and environmental factors, including volume of network traffic, building materials and construction, and network overhead, lower actual data throughput rate.
