ReadyNAS antivirus stopped updating Readynas 3138 Firmware 6.9.3
My ReadyNAS stopped receiving antivirus updates on March 20th 2018. With ssh enabled I tried running freshclam and received the following message: ClamAV update process started at Thu Apr 19 14:3...
- Apr 30, 2018
I was able to address the issue by removing the mirrors.dat file to reset the download history.
rm /var/lib/clamav/mirrors.dat
Then ran freshclam again and the updates downloaded with out issue.

The nas is able to connect to the internet to download firmware and other apps.
If you try pinging database.clamav.net it is succeeding with no errors.

Ok. But in your earlier post it resolved to a different IP address
Can't connect to port 80 of host database.clamav.net (IP: 74.115.25.14)
The 74.x.x.x. address doesn't respond to ping.
Perhaps try freshclam again, and see if it resolves the the same IP address as ping.
Are you using multiple ethernet connections? If so, which bonding mode are you using?

Two nic ports are being used in bond mode IEEE 802.3ad LACP. If I try pinging 74.115.25.14 the screen shows 56 data bytes and the curser drops down a line and nothing happens after that.

root@NAS2:~# ping 74.115.25.14
PING 74.115.25.14 (74.115.25.14): 56 data bytesIt hangs because it isn't getting any response (unlike windows, there is no default timeout).
The puzzle is why database.clamav.net is always resolving to that address.
On my NAS, it resolves to 74.115.25.14 every now and then, but mostly resolves to other IP addresses.
What do you see when you enter host database.clamav.net?
My system shows
