PLEX does not show up in APPs on 6.6.0 Ready NAS 104
I have 6.6.0 firmware. I know this used to show Plex under "APPS". Now it does not.
I have read the other thread that is marked solved, but it's unclear what "solved" it. That thread mentions ...
Is the issue that plex was installed, and is missing from the apps page in the web UI? Or that it isn't installed, and is not shown on the available apps page?
Assuming that it isn't installed.
Plex no longer distributes their app through the netgear store. So it will not show up under "available apps" any more. So if plex is not installed, you need to download it from plex.tv and then upload it on the apps page.
Once you've done that, it should show up on the apps page. The install completes in the background, and it can take a few minutes after the upload completes.
It is not installed. But I know it used to be on the APPS page; it was on my list of things to do. Now, when I have time to install it, after updating firmware to 6.6.0, it does not show in the APPS section anymore.
Sounds like I need to go download it so I'll try that.
Thanks!

It it was never installed, it would have been on the available apps page (the main apps page is only for installed apps).
After reading up on PLEX.tv forums, it sounds like Netgear has dropped compatability or support for PLEX. Can anybody confirm if this is supposed to work with a ReadyNAS 104 or not?

I don't think Netgear has dropped anything. Plex chose to drop legacy platforms for a variety of NAS (not only Netgear), but they continue to support all OS 6 NAS, included the RN104.
PlexServer was running on my RN316 until the system updated to 6.6.0. After that update I tried to manually update Plex to the latest version. When i tried to stop plex to do the update, Plex disappeared from my system. Attempts to do the manual install has been unsuccessful. I've tried multiple versions, including the one that was running at the time to no avail. None of them will install.
Anyone have work-around?
