ReadyNAS 204; Check for Update Fails
Last couple of days, my ReadyNAS 204 (firmware 6.10.7) has begun failing the "check for update" function. Returns "60010100060 Communications Error. Check your internet connection, DNS settings, or proxy settings."
Yet, the thing is on the network and otherwise functioning properly--antivirus updates are arriving (last one was this morning). Logging in to an interatctive shell to the console, I can ping the outside world:
# ping google.com
PING google.com (142.250.81.238): 56 data bytes

netstat shows what it should show (router is 192.168.252.5):

I'm seeing the same error, so it must an issue on Netgear's end.
I got the exact same issue.

Top notch service from netgear đđDone; see PM
Exact same error on RN204 & RN424 both at 6.10.7.
Forced DNS servers on 424 to 8.8.8.8 & 8.8.4.4. No joy.
50+ devices on network reaching internet & DNS ok. Plex server on RN424 has no problem reaching internet.
This problem has now disappeared for me. Nothing from NetGear, but my 'check-for-update' is now working properly with no error messages. Thanks.
Same problem, but firmware 6.10.6.
Have updated one of two but one of them vil not update

Actually a different problem, since the original one was caused by an issue on Netgear's end that caused all check-for-updates to fail on all ReadyNAS. FWIW, it is working on born an RN102 and an RN526 that I checked.
Have you confirmed that the problem NAS can reach the internet?
