Hi,
Is there a particular trick to installing the Meta mod? I've installed the SSH and LOGTEMP mods without issue, but do not seem able to install the Meta mod.
I've downloaded N2100-META.2.1.02.tar and extracted the file within it. The installation just doesn't take. I'm running firmware version 2.1.05. Any ideas?

This issue/questions pops up every month! Maybe it is time to write a sticky thread on 'how-to extract linux archives' for all those Windows slaves out there (please excuse me if I have offended anybody). The first step for most is probably to get a decent unpacker (small, and powerful candicate would be www.7-zip.org/). Then follow these four steps - Archives are distributed in .tgz format (short for .tar.gz)
- Extract twice (first expand to .tar, then extract contents)
- locate .html file and read the documentation
- upload .mod file via web interface

Excellent! That's exactly what I was looking for. The suggestion to create a sticky is a good one. I would also suggest an update to the Thecus wiki as well. For those of us who are not familiar with linux, there is often a bit of a gap in the documentation...and it is often with "easy" steps such as extracting files or logging in as root.
Thanks again!
