Any advice would be very much appreciated
You can downgrade back to 6.10.9.

Whether you downgrade or not, you'll also need to make the changes here:
Posts 1 and 37 are particularly relevant.
Once those changes are made, you will be able to install plex from ssh. And if you downgrade, you would also be able to install it from the web ui.
One caveat - Plex likely won't be providing the app for ReadyNAS indefinitely. You should keep a copy of the deb file. Even then you will likely have to install Plex on a different platform at some point in the future. Personally I run the Plex server on a PC, but keep the media files on my ReadyNAS.

Thank you, I have kept a copy of the Plex deb file and I have now amended my apt sources list which has allowed me to install apps again via ssh
I am also keeping a copy of the 6.10.9 firmware file just in case I decide to downgrade at any point.
Thanks again for your help! 🙂
