Thanks a lot,
I’m not skilled in installing via ssh…
Now I am hosting Plex Media on a Mac and pointing to the desired share on NAS as you wrote. But I do not want to keep this Mac always on…

Got that. But hosting it on a Mac (or a Window or Linux PC) is IMO your best option. The RN100 series has very little memory and a rather slow CPU. Installation is also complicated by the deprecation of Debian 8 (Jessie).

Thanks again!
