twonky for readynas os 6

Hi

 

The Twonky Media package on the admin panel --thanks to Super Poussin for it-- seems to be outdated as it refuses to install . The official Twonky website offers no package for readynas as well (and no other option but the last version 8.5.2).

Is there an archive soewhere and which version still run on our brave readynas devices ?

 

Mine is a RN3138 (x64)

 

any help very welcome

kind regards

      Hi

      unfortenately, I did that but still encounter the same problem as with other Apps too.

      Tried to factory reset, and reinstall OS from scratch. Also tried to change dns, event pluged the device on a 4g router (in order to try from another network) .

       

       Am I the only one with these problems ? installing apps , especially from the admin panel store, should work out of the box . It seems to me that Netgear has given up readynas .

        I agree, they seem to have quiet-quit.

        1. The last ReadyNAS platforms were released in 2017. 
        2. New ReadyNAS can't be found in on-line stores
        3. No new features in several years.
        4. ReadyCloud is being shut down.
        5. People have had increasing difficulty in reaching Netgear support.

        Netgear never warranted the third-party apps there, and AFAICT didn't routinely do any regression testing to make sure they installed (or functioned) after they were put in added to the store.  One or twice they archived apps that were no longer compatible, but it's been a long since they've done that.
