Yes, other people are seeing 403 also.  FWIW, the reset isn't the culprit.  New apps can't be installed on 6.10.3 systems, and I suspect app updates (for instance plex) will also similarly fail.

 

I reported this on another thread on the ARM systems, but didn't know if it would happen on an x86 ReadyNAS or not.  Obviously it does.  I've also sent a PM to the mods ( JohnCM_S and Marc_V ) - hopefully they will take care of the 403 error that is coming from apt.netgear.com.

 

I don't think there is any workaround for the 403, unless someone happens to have a mirror of apt.netgear.com that has the access permissions set properly.  But it looks like the broken pipe issue is something else.

 

Still, I think the plex update would have failed even if you didn't have the broken pipe (as I think the update would still have needed to access libraries on apt.netgear.com).

X86 is also affected. I have RN ultra 6 on os 6.x and Intel CPU, and this has a problem too. So it looks like problem is platform wide / independent.
