I have been in contact with support for this issue and others. No resolution...
This latest firmware update breaking the ADS connection is the last straw for me with Netgear. The 6.5.0 update was supposed to fix the Anti-Virus scanner issue that caused the ReadyNAS units to respond extremly slowly if it all. Instead, it created an even bigger problem across my network where users could no longer access any of their data.
This has been ongoing for two weeks now with no resolution.
That's unaccecptable!
I have migrated my data to other servers and purchased two new rackmount NAS. My Netgear 3130's are sitting on the floor waiting for the next trash pickup.

My issue has been resolved by the 3rd line support team. Shares and permissions back working correctly again.

They got mine working again as well. However, we had our NAS on a scheduled restart every Sunday. When it restarted, it lost the fix that was applied. I had to have Netgear reapply the fix and then turned off my schedule restarts. Something to keep in mind until they release new firmware with a permanent fix.
