How I got apt update and install to work (with Debian Jessie retired)
OK, so I started off creating my own local Debian repository. Not recommended -- it's a lot of work. But with a lot of Googling and experimenting, I finally got apt to work using an online source. ...

Hi All,
After going back and re-reading this and the ZeroTier as ReadyCloud Replacement threads, I finally got 1.6.6 running and online!
It totally works! I see the remote server in the macOS network tab and I can log on with my credentials and everything I expect is there. It's a fine replacement for ReadyCloud and the team is stoked to be able to work remotely again.
Thanks Sandshark, StephenB, and everyone else for your help!😊

Hi All,
Recently ZeroTier suddenly stopped working for us. I checked the ZeroTier network and it appears that our ReadyNas is not connecting. Here's a screen shot:
The top address is the ReadyNAS, the bottom address is my connected computer. As you can see, the ReadyNAS doesn't have an IP on the network.
I ran zerotier-cli join in terminal with the network ID and received a 200 OK reply
But when I run zerotier-cli info I get an OFFLINE reply even though the ReeadyNAS is authorized.
Sandshark, StephenB and anyone else - have you encountered this problem? What do I need to do to get ZeroTier back up and running? I'm using version 1.6.6
I found this discussion in the ZeroTier forum but I'm hoping I don't have to reinstall:

Things were working great until it broke. Any advice greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

What model NAS is this on? I had a similar issue when both of my Ethernet ports were enabled and the primary one didn't have internet access. I have my primary and backup NAS's connected to just each other via a switch and static IP's, but the primary had ETH1 connected to my "real" LAN and ETH0 to the local-only one where the backups had the opposite. Swapping the ports (including their DHCP options) and re-booting the NAS did the trick. If your are using ETH1 as your primary network connection and ETH0 is enabled, even though not connected to anything, perhaps the same thing could happen.

Sandshark - This is a Pro 6. Will check the ports as you suggest and report back. Thanks!

There was nothing unusual with the port configuration. ETH0 was primary and the only port enabled. I wound up following the instructions from the ZeroTier forum to uninstall/re-install ZeroTier and now everything's back up and running normally. Hopefully it doesn't break again!😉
Thanks for your help!
