Plex Media Server not working after updating to V1.0.5.2
After updating to firmware V1.0.5.2, the router is not able to download the latest plex version 1.18.0.1913-e5cc93306 (strangely enough, it says that the release date for that version is Jul 16, 2019 when it was actually released today Oct 10, 2019).
I've already tried factory reseting the router and pushing the plex media server download manually and it says "unkown error"
This issue should be resolved now please try to remove the Plex update and reinstall it.

Same here, unticked the automatic update, and select Update now - zero indication in the router Logs (not the first time) ... wonder what logs are for?
Plex Version Update Enable Automatic Plex New Version Update Current Plex version: 1.16.3.1402-22929c8a2 Jul 16, 2019 New Plex version: 1.18.0.1913-e5cc93306 Jul 16, 2019 Unknow error. Not kiding: Unknow error.
Fits to the missing spaces in the pop-up:
If you proceed with the update, your Plex Media Server will restart.Do you want to continue with the update? Chinglish or Hindish?
Netgear are you going to fix this issue? Plex Media Server (a key feature of this router) IS UNUSABLE, or should I start setting my mind on "build another PMS dude, this is gonna be a long ride" mode.
The problem is with the PMS release and not the firmware update, because before I updated the router firware I wasn't able to download the new PMS version.
I have escalated this issue to the engineers.

PMS successfully downloaded and works fine. Although, I don't know why it says that the release date is Jul 16
