See Post 37 on this thread:
That is about as simple as we can make it. But it does require use of ssh. We can give you the commands needed to copy the files from a NAS share to the correct folder.

Why was the app support terminated in the first place?

Note I don't work for Netgear or represent them in any way.
The operating system on your NAS is Linux Debian 8 (also called "Jesse"). Jessie was released in 2015, and the Debian community discontinued support for it in 2020. When they did that, they archived all the repostories for the libraries (moving them to a new location). These libraries are needed to install the apps.
The changes in the link I posted are telling the NAS to get the libraries from the archived locations.
While Netgear could have upgraded the NAS to run a newer version of Debian, that is a pretty big change and they chose not to do it. One aspect is that Netgear stopped making new ReadyNAS hardware back in 2017, and all ReadyNAS products are now end-of-life. So Netgear has exited their NAS business.
Netgear could have also have done patched the NAS to use the archived libraries in 6.10.10 instead of just removing the feature. They didn't explain that decision - but my guess it was because the archived libraries were no longer getting security updates.

One alternative is to just switch to installing transmission or something similar on an always-on PC.
Yes i kinda figured that out. 🙂
The thing is that i'm very bad at this he writes about and i really dont know where to start.
Is it much to do? Is it to much to ask for a guide? 🙂 I feel i must at least try when i got my hand on a person like you. 🙂
So Netgear don't have any NAS at all or have just decided to end old ones so people buy newer ones...

A step-by-step depends on where you put the two files in his download. You want to put them in one of your NAS shares temporarily. Can you give us a share name where you can put them?
